Have to add that if James made this any more accurate he should send a free bag target with it. Yesterday I had to get up at 450 to go to work and I got home a little after 6pm and the mail still hadn't arived. So the mailman delivered the bow around 630 pm and tired as I was with tired eyes i was shooting it reall well. This morning I had to meet some people to workout this included flipping a 300lbs tire weel this wore my back and forearms out. After this I had to go to my mothers house to help with yardwork. After this I got up on her deck as this mimics shooting from a treestand and I was wearing the bullseye out, with a sore back and sore forearms usually I cant shoot worth 2 cent after working out.

I hope that is a reverse handle bow.  I just can't wrap my mind around how it looks.  Kind of like seeing a knee bend the wrong way.  Anyway, If that is a James Berry bow, you will love it.

Now that  I look at the pictures again; it looks like the grip is dished on the what would be the back of the bow grip.  Is that usual on a reverse handle??

Moe,
It is dished on the back of the handle, and yes that's how James does it on the Morningstar. He is making his reverse handles in the true riser format of an American longbow instead of the glass over styles you typically see. Since the glass runs the full length across the belly but none on the back that is where he is shaping the grip.  

It sits so unbelievable well in the hand it is scary!!

James made mine as a tribute to my late brother and it is my favorite by far. James is an exceptional man and has super bowyer skills. I have a Vixen that I have had for many years that I didn't think could be replaced as my favorite but James did it with my Morningstar, "Brother David". Thanks Mr. Berry

I love my Vixen, but that Morning Star looks even harder to torque. Anyone shoot both?
