Brian...Very nice!

Yew makes a great bow and one of the best looking woods too. Enjoy!

Would anyone happen to know what the centre cut on a glassed Schulz American longbow from the mid-90s is likely to be?

My best guess would be 3/16" to 1/4" outside.  Depends on the leather thickness.  You can always take the leather off if your arrows are a touch stiff and shoot off the wood.  I have a small piece of rubber I cut from a Saunders pak tab layer as one contact point on my Sunset Hill.  I like the way it shoots where Nate Steen shoots his right of the side of the bow with no leather.  Puts me at about 3/16 outside. "Fine tuning".     :thumbsup:

So I think one of my New Year resolutions would be to perfect my Hill shooting style. Who are the best teachers out there?

Figured we could always use more pictures of bows.
