Beauty is in the eye of the bow-holder. LOL I like pretty bows, but I like bows that shoot pretty the most.

Arvid is a heck of an innovator! If anyone can work out the "kinks" on a kinky bow, he can!!!

Someday a good deal on a lefty Swan will pop up!!!

Bud Hitt made limbs with a wave in them too, called it dual power limbs, but they were not as pronounced as those are. His tips had more recurve also

Here is my Mon River Venom. Must have been monkeyballs at one time.Draws smooth and shoots fast. The design definitely works.

The design might work and work well. However, I do not like the way the limbs look when the bow is strung.

I really think Arvid needs to make these to sell. After tinkering with them today I got them very quiet and they are just so smooth. vtmtnman should be on to post his impressions later today as he was the photographer for me and got to shoot these and a few other bows today.

What, if any, is the benefit to that design. Does the wave add something to the power curve like a standard recurve does or is it just a fun design to make it different from all the other bows out there.

Actually it makes the force draw curve about as linear as it can get. This bow will define the meaning of smooth draw for you if you ever get to pull one back.

Tell you what guys(And gals)...This bow is SMOOTH.I overdrew this bow to about 31-32 and there was NO hint of stack anywhere in the forecast.

Once we got the bow tuned up she was a super shooter and whisper quiet.

I'd love to see what this design would be like with 45-55#'s.

looks like a take off of the horse bows.  The top part acts as ?? sihyas ?? however they are spelled,  big levers that make the bottom portion flex.

Want to follow any more posts here so I had to add a post. My NetNannny software doesn't like searches for the word 'kinky'.  It is interesting.

Dave Barndale makes a double recuve limb for componds but this even beats his design.  

Keep us posted!

Me thinks this is cool!
