Outstanding Jess. I like the look of the lams all on the belly side of the wedges and how you have matched that in the riser.  Beautiful bow!

Thanks for all the nice comments.  Bob the riser is 16" long and the limb platform are flat no angle at all.  Scott glad you are enjoying yours, they do shoot pretty good.

BenBow you are more than welcome to come over but this one will already be shipped.
