That bend profile on those limbs looks a lot like a BL bow I was working on several years ago.  I had to abandon it because it was too unstable

  I have a question Mark, maybe a couple of questions. What amount of reflex did you finally settle on as being optimum for your designs? By reflex, I mean how far behind the back of the bow were the tips.

Just saw this Ryan. If you want to come my way next spring I can probably find a field we can shoot in.

I’d love to get to the flats sometime. If you head that way please contact me prior.

The bow I was working on had a deflex handle profile like I normally make them and the tips were set back several inches.  Unfortunately I don't have pictures, or if I did I can't find them
