Heres the material for a new bow I’ll be building for hunting season. There is enough material there for 5 bows. If everyone is interested I’ll post more pics as I work on it. I’ll be building 2 bows at once. The other is for my nephew. Tradgang.com has some really good threads on this.

Thanks for the compliments. As for the way they perform. I’m happy with how it turned out. For me I don’t feel a stackup but a smooth draw. I haven’t ran it thru a chronograph but I feel it’s pretty quick. I’ve been building bows on and off for 20 years and been thinking about selling them. I’ll post some more pics tomorrow.
 
Heres some more pics
