This will be year 4 for this bow, above were the original project photos...before she got furnished.  It now has great karma, with 5 elk in 3 years to it's name (two cows), and a 4/5 pass-thru rate.  

 Never the cutest, Originally she was a failed project that I resurrected (with the advice from tradgangers) by cutting the riser in half the longwise and re-gluing.  That year I took my first bull with a bow I made, having always used the creations of others to do it, a great 315 bull.

     

I should take a better photo... but here she is.  Really excited about this years set up, seems very fast, hitting really hard and most importantly, tuned very well and shooting very accurately.  I took some weight off by going away from the Ad Hammer heads and to regular trads.  What an arrow!

3 piece 77#(ish) r/d, Ad trads, 125 gr adapter, 250 Cutthroats, 700 grn total weight.

     

Thanks for looking, shoot straight and good luck everyone!
77# @ 29.5 r/d longbow homer
