Looks to me like you've got a bit of a hinge in the bottom limb just below the fade.

Nice job looks like it shoots  ;D I do see a slight hinge as adb said but it looks like it works for u for now i like the back of the bow and grip looks good, nice job
my friends think my shops a mess, my wife thinks I have too much bow wood, my neighbors think im redneck white trash and they may all be right on the money!!

Nice bow!   :) I really like the contrasting handle riser wood and it looks like it is a pretty awesome bow!  Bookmarked for January BOM contest!
