Very beautiful. I am wanting to learn to build badly. Need a new hobby to pass the time when I can't hunt. You going to build anymore this size? I like the shorties!

I love this bow profile and your riser looks outstanding.  These little bows shoot so much better than you would ever think.  Great job!

I will build another one since this one is going to end up in the hands of a buddy of mine.
Brad you are right about how they shoot- very spot on and stable for a shortie.

Gentleman who would like the plans, send me your email in a PM.  Of course you must post pics of your build or finished bow.

One more question Trux....did you use ULS glass (glass with scrim that is). I am assuming so as I don't think Gordon's makes brown glass without scrim.

Thanks

David that little bow is just crazy neat. I have not been impressed by any short bow I have ever seen until now. I really like it. God Bless you and great job. Cool choice of woods too , one of my favorites.

Thanks Guys. Bob if you do a search for Herters it will come up- Brads build was in April 2010.
