Two great looking bows.  I love the use of antler on the tips and arrow pass.  Great job!

Beautiful work! Those are some impressive speeds. are the relexed at unbraced?
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

Thanks fellas :) They were fun to make.
Carson - when I chronoed them I wasn't expecting such good numbers. The pyramid sits dead straight and the recurves tips are slightly behind the handle, both had no heat treating.
