Nicely done Kamil, a lot of graceful curves in that bow.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

 I think he means Self bow with reflex, actually recurves.

That is a good looking bow, nice recurves you bent into it and the tiller looks spot on. Now, pull her on back ;). BOM?

If you never have time to do it right, you'll always have time to do it over.

Very well done! Nice job!
