Nice :)
6 strands = 420# breaking strain / good for a 105# bow....

I know that's what it's rated for and it shows no sign of wear or any problems at all but I just gotta get used to that thin string. Need to narrow up my notchs in my arrows now.

Thanks so much everyone for looking and all the kind words.

Great looking rig, BJ, I don't blame you for keeping it. I've made a few that looked so good where there were I just had to stop tillering

Thanks Pearl that's just how this one was. It was just a really nice stave with just a little natural reflex out of the handle. She was a dream to tiller and held her shape real nice. She's just a little heavy but such a smooth draw that she feels good even with a couple extra lbs. I'm gonna have to bareshaft some arrows for her to get all I can from her. She's a little faster than anything else I have

Very nice bj, I like that one a lot.  Full draw looks spot on. Although brace height looks low.

Thanks Aaron, the brace does seem to look a little low. For some reason I don't get any wrist slap and it still has a lot of early string tension. I did put a couple more twists in the string after these pictures though. I think I might leave it a bit low though plan on hunting with this one so it'll be strung for long periods of time.

You don't get the wrist slap because you are now using better string. Try adjusting it to fine tune your shot placement as well.  Still a great bow though ;)

Your getting those HHB wood bows dialed in bjrogg!!!For the arrow nocks to fit better I just put a little more serving on the string where it nocks is all.

Mighty fine looking bow BJ.  Very nice looking profiles.....unbraced and full draw really nice,  I love me some statics.
