Very nice all round. I've had some hackberry aging for a bit over a year. This one makes me want to dig into it.
Thanks for posting.

Nice looking hackberry.  Do you mind sharing how wide you made the limbs and is it pyramid shape?  Thanks.

Mwo, its just under 2" at the fades and tapers to under 1/2" tips. This really was the most straight forward bow i've done in quit awhile. After gettin it to floor tiller it just fell rite into place . Tillered out quickly and smooth. It shoots great with absolute zero hand shock.

I am a little conflicted over the inspiration this bow lends me.

1) Inspiration to reach for this quality of work
2) Inspiration to quit and give up because this thing is pretty close to perfect.
