mullet, that's 3/4 " (0.75")  of follow which is less than an inch. The wood is hickory. The brown is some cambium I left on. Should be fine. Thanks for the critique.  Jawge

 Jawge, you asked for both barrels? The bow looked so good, I was scraping to load both of them.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

mullet, when I finish a bow that's my traditional toast. But It's not done yet so no Ouzo bow yet. Ryan, that's the beauty of sweats. They don't have to match.  Thanks, guys. Jawge

  Very nice George,  Critique your work and with both barrels?   I'm with Eddie. I think we would have to did real deep ::)  But if you really want it I'll just try for one barrel cause you got allot more YEARS of experience then I do. ::)

  Looks like the tips could lose a little weight.  Though I like slightly stiff tips it looks like a little extra mass that isn't really working and might be robbing some performance. ;)

60", stiff handle, white wood, and only 3/4" follow - that's seems like a good outcome to me. Nice work George.

Hmmm pretty tough to find any thing to critique Jawge, but here goes. No front profile picture :o and yer pictures are a little fuzzy ;)
Other than that she looks great and I don't think she needs to worry about becoming a tomato stake :) :P Looking forward to pictures when
its completely done.

Man george... it is hard to find anything wrong with your bows.....

the braced profile looks perfect.
studying hard.... it looks to me like it is just a little stiff in the upper limb right by the corner of the window in the right facing shot.... but could be just the pic.

nice job... I think she is a shooter just as she is.

Looks plenty good enough to me Jawge, except I think you're trying to sneak a new pair of sweats in on us-those don't look like the same Original Official Full Draw Sweatpants. ;D

LOL, Hillbilly. I figured I'd try. I knew you'd notice the new sweats. n2, thanks. I might take a scrape or 2 on the upper tip but I have to watch it because of the twist and because of how narrow it is. Thanks, Dana. Pappy, thanks. Ole Jawge doesn't make as may as he used to. Thanks, Gordon. She shoots well. She does bend a bit in the handle and through the fades. Thanks, Keenan. That bottom tip had a bit of a deflex and the top is twisted so I'm not sure how much wood I want to take from them but I'll check it out. Jawge
