Nice work. the upper limb is bending more than the lower, but as it seems there are no problems, so nothing to worry about.

Minuteman: I guess my arm is about the same size and I can pull a 95# bow, so I guess the orange is the secret :D :D :D
Ps: great looking hair you got there. simillar to mine, and about as long also.

Our war cry rings out, enchanting, to a land
that is breaking loose of its chains.

Good work, although I agree you could get the limbs bending out of the fades more. :)

I'll retract my statement, Kegan, I stand in awe of yours and your brother's awesome upper body strength. ;D
 That being said be careful and don't hurt yourself pulling those heavy bows. Just because you can pull it doesn't mean its not destroying your shoulder.
 You may have a longer life as an archer( and I'd bet money your accuracy would improve) if you start shooting some 60# bows or even( heaven forbid)  50#!
 Hey Shannon, you are right, what little hair I have is red, unfortunately its all on my chin! :o

Thanks man ;D!

Minuteman- Thanks :D. Kyle's more sensible than I am- he's got several 55-60# he shoots regularly. But we try and save heavy weights for longer bows ;). And we're pretty far from normal- he's a bruiser (he weighs in at 250#) and I'm heavey arrow-obsessed ;).
