Sorry guys I don't have any pics at full draw. I'll work on it for ya though.  I took the pics in the kitchen so you could use the tile floor as a visual straight edge.  I've contemplated about trying to heat the limbs to straighten them up, but I've decided that it's too much of an oddity, You should see people jumping out of the way when I bring her to full draw.

Cool bow Uncle. Looking forward to more pics. I prefer my bows to not be straight. If I wanted that I would use another medium.     Pat

I would have considered taking twist and lean out w/ heat, as such a bow has a tendancy to rotate in ones hand on the draw.  And I would not have left that knot a ring proud on the back.  But it looks like a great bow, and that much string follow isn't necessarity markable, or any reason for concern wrt to cast.  Great bow.  Congradulations.

that is fantastic!  I love the crooked limb.  I have one right now that has one straight limb and one really crooked one like that.  I think I'll have to bend the handle area just a bit to get the string centered, though.  

Great job on the knot too.  I think it's okay leaving a little extra wood around it -- better than not enough!  I'm anxious to see the full draw pics!
