That bow looks amazing. I have a shorter 62 inch hackberry stave that I have been eyeing as well to work on. Any information about this one such as dimensions for the fades limb widths and tip would be appreciated. Awesome job!!!  :clapper:

No the arrowhead is just Pecan that I glued on the back of the riser...it just kinda fell in place when I was roughing the handle out. The 48 inch one is 13/4 at the fades tapered to 1/2" but it's not a smooth taper, the limbs are kinda lumpy and a few knots....it's 25# at 20". I flipped the tips a bit and it's been pulled to 24 a couple times. Thanks
