Man, how I always love your handle sections! If you would do handle-section-classes I'd sign in immediately. And of course the rest of the bow is also georgeous. cheers

Another beauty,  Leonwood. You’re definitely developing a style, I always recognize your bows on other sites as distinctly yours

    Nice build...I really like to see some fade movement like you have here...Fades play a big part in correct tiller and performance and you have this incorporated in your bow...Nice balance also

Thanks and I agree! I make my fades quite long but always make sure they work. The hardes part with long fades and flipped tips is to make sure your whole limb works. It is so easy to overshoot and create a hinge at the fade or just below the recurves.
Works wonders for keeping the set low though!
