That bow is Awesome! I love the riser inlays. I'll bet she's a real shooter, and worth the wait. Congrats!!  :notworthy:    :clapper:    :archer2:

Oh she's a shooter. I was amazed at the arrow speed I got yesterday, shooting 10GPP arrows. And I don't even think I got it to full draw, as I haven't shot for a while. Still managed to hit the bullseye a few times.

Mudd,

I aim to please! And for your question... yup, this way I can also shoot the arrow with a thumb ring, off the right side of the bow. I originally requested a shelf, as this is what I'm used to on my longbows, but shooting off the hand doesn't bother me at all.

By the way...

The bow looks awesome at full draw. The string angle is ridiculously low, even at a long draw of around 32". If anyone is interested, I'll have my father snap a full draw picture when I get the chance.

Absolutely!.. post all the pictures you can of it.

I hope you do a couple of pictures at full draw, some with whatever you use when not using a thumb ring and with the thumb ring as well.

God bless,Mudd

Thank you everyone. The bow is, indeed, lovely.

Oberon, it's the Genghis model. Reason? Well... I like the Mongols  :)
