Yes the limbs are symmetrical, in the full draw photo the bow is slightly canted so may give the impression of the top limb being longer. The bow is a dimensional match to the Powhatan bow in The Encyclopedia of Native American Bows, Arrows and Quivers volume 1 page 14.

Thanks for the kind words, I hope to produce more videos in future and am currently working on a video showing the process of making a buckskin quiver.

Wallski:
You did a fabulous job on this bow, and it’s great that you had a YouTube build along to go with it.

Hey, Sleek, I think we have another entry for BOTM! 

Great work on these.  Those narrow-handle Sudburry bows are sure easy on the eyes.

Whoop whoop! Hopefully he enters it this month, but if not, he has next month too!
