Good job on a challenging piece of wood. Got your fine weapon all bookmarked for Self BOM - September, too.  Thanks for the post.

One funny thing about that, is this bow the straightest piece of wood I have used in a long time lol, here is a pic of my last one, these are how they usually turn out ;D....    One of the draw backs,  and benefits of cuttin your own wood  ;)

 The asymmetric design may be a little harder to tiller, but I feel the shooting benifits that having the arrow lined up at the center of the bow make shooting these things a breeze, it is well worth it...  Not advocating trying this design at all though... cough   ;D   Ty
