 Great looking bow Pappy, I like the charater and really like the slightly stiffer outer limbs at full draw.Gives a good string angle and looks like a great shooter. With the density of the iron wood, how is it on hand shock? Have you done any mass calculations on it?

Beautiful bow Pappy. HHB makes an excellent bow. I was very impressed with the one I donated to the Classic and Ron's son won.     Pat
