Whats to be said.....
Those are perfection. Un-braced pictures say it all.
If you are ever stuck for inspiration on what type of bow to make next I'd like to see a recurve from you......really sharp recurves, 62 in ntn and a 27-28 inch draw, non bending handle ,unbacked and able to shoot 180fps at 10gpp....why? because I think these are the hardest to make style of selfbow and I just want to see what you come up with  ;)

Thanks guys!

mikekeswick, I have one thats similar in the works. Had to put it aside while waiting for a new heat gun. It's not top priority but I'll get to it eventually. I just love my straight bows so much! :laugh:

Del, I'm starting to think I should make all my bows the same lengths.  :P

Sounds good Ryan, thanks for the info.  I'll probably try something a little more conservative.

Ryoon how many times has each been shot at full draw, approx?
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

Probably about 100 give or take. The black one was finished first and there was a delay to make the white one so it has a few more shots through it. Just unbraced reflex stands at about 3/4".
