That is cool looking bro.   :thumbsup:  

That is quite a limb shape you got going there. if you don't mind me asking , what kind of forward taper are you running on those limbs? and can we see a front profile on those limbs?

I'll bet there are no preload issues on that one.   ;)

SWEEEEEEEET !!! I bet that baby rocks and sends the arrows with some nice speed into the target. I would love to know a bit more about the stack and taper too.

I will get all the specs together for you all when I hit the shop tomorrow. I love this design I just killed a deer with another one of my bows built just like this one. No stack no preload smooth and fast it really is a nice shooting bow.

Man, that is a good looking wood on that limb...
