Good afternoon all,

I've been working at the trilam thing this past winter and a few have come out nicely. I love the way they shoot. All of them are getting speeds in the 180s and are super smooth.

Have you built a shooting machine yet? I gained about 15-20 fps by eliminating the weak point---me. You might be pushing 200 real hard ;D ;D ;D

Don, I can't even get it together enough to make a few arrows, let alone a shooting machine! lol Maybe this summer when I get a break from the 5th graders.  (-S

M2A, Hawk, sieddy, and stix, thank you gentlemen for your thoughts. They are much appreciated.  (=)

That's a real nice wood combination and some interesting profiles! I love the smoothness and speed of rd's and I bet this one has it both! Top limb looks a little stiff at the outers but I could be wrong?

Awesome Jeff  :OK  Sure looks fast. 
That's great that you harvested all of the materials yourself.  That's my goal too.

Different type of wood combos.  Looks amazing and very nice bend.  My ideal stats 64" just perfect.
