That is nice Steve. I sort of figured you could do something good with those staves.

Nicely done Steve. I like the narrow light weight tips, do you think they could be even narrower and lighter? Anxious to hear how she does. Kenneth

Marlon, hopefully you will shoot it for me in the unlimited brodhead self bow class, at 25" draw with a 700 grain arrow we hit 199 fps, I think drawing 28" shooting 500 grains and a good release, maybe 350 yards or so. I will send it to you in a couple of weeks when I get her prettied up a bit. Steve
