Nice looking bow! Did you make it excatly from their pattern or did you vary it some? I have been wanting to make one of theres but had heard they didn't shoot very well and I don't know anyone who has made one...What did you use for the limbs?

hello anchorman.

the limbs are cherry with a palisander veneer. i did it not exactly from pattern. i did the handle-section more deep, to straighten the bow hand.
second i did it from parallels only (instead of binghams one taper/one parallel). theres absolutely no stacking. its very smooth to draw, and you would not believe its drawweight of 58#. the negative effect of the parallels is a little bit handshock. but i have to try some other string material.
it shoots very accurate and its "forgiving"
