thanks Bue, shred and Kenny. Shred will get a few more shots for you shortly. Kenny , my chrono is out of action., which of the two do you think is the faster either the FRLB or this takedown model. I think myself this model might just shade the FRLB.I know it is quick and quiet.

It probably does by a fuzz, it has shorter working limbs if you count the wedge on the 16" riser compared to the FHLB with the 16" riser...

But I put a power lam in the FHLB so ....
Stay sharp, Kenny.

I put a power lam in my FRLB too. I did put one through a chrono at our club. It was a 42# FRLB and was using a heavy POC arrow and it went 177FPS probably not drawing the full 28''either. Shred--- couple photos here , unfortunately being on my own I could'nt do a full draw shot.

the tip overlays are black palm over ebony and black glass. The bow was finished in satin as per request.

  Nice limb shape...  The way I like them, almost straight with just a little bend...

Great looking bow.  I agree it has a nice braced profile.  Excellent work.
