Goob, I can't figure out what is the dark squiggly line in your riser?

Epoxy.... riser moved a touch.  Good thing I start with 1-3/4" wide material. Glue lines and fades look decent so I can actually sleep tonight.  Charcoal action wood, leopard wood,  and maple.

Came home today around 5:30 and found a long box waiting on me.  Opened it immediately and found a sweet bow from Bvas.
Beautifully  crafted. Ran straight  back  outside  and started slinging arrows thru it. It draws smooth , release is smooth , shoots quick , and is dead quiet. I couldn't be happier. Thanks Brad!!

On a side note i have been making progress on my victims bow. Still need to stretch draw out a couple more inches but have been shooting it at a short draw in betwee scraping sessions. Will try to get updated pic tomorrow.

Awesome!
You lucky dog, I mean turtle :bigsmyl:

On a side note, I can't believe how green it is there. All the trees are leafed out and you have grass!

Glad you like it Steve.
I had a hard time boxing that one up. It is not the quickest bow I’ve built. But I’d say it’s one of the smoothest and definitely the quietest.

Enjoy :thumbsup:

Got it tillered to about 10# over weight , but lost all the reflex didn't see any real set from where it was at before I added reflex so I heated it back in. Going for mild deflex reflex. Will let it sit a couple days before i get back to tillering.
