a few months back i built my first bamboo backed ipe and i was really impressed with its performance.
i got an email from a guy who wanted a similar one, i agreed but i wanted to experiment a little with the dimensions. made the bamboo a little thicker in some areas and narrowed up the belly stock, played with the tiller a bit. Boy did it pay off! this is hands down THE fastest bamboo backed bow ive ever make. (not to toot my own horn) i am very pleased with the way this bow shoots.
sorry for the poor FD shot no one was around to take the pic for me....
