Came out nice. I've never been able to see good tiller on a R/D style bow. Well done.  :OK

Looks good, nice work, the only bow I every left the bark on [yes it looked cool] was a pin nut Hickory sapling bow, after several months the back I guess really dried out and starting cracking so I had to take it off before it ruined the back of the bow, Ocean may be different but probably need to keep an eye on it. Again nice work. I love the R/D design.  :)

Very nicely done. Full draw looks good to me. Sounds like it shoots great.

  Ocean spray is amazing wood, this bow here  has a drying check that is 24" long and goes right hrogh the bow. 4 1/2" reflex no deflex and took less than 1/2" set. Extremely fast bow. Bow is about 1 1/16 wide. I will try and make a string and do a chrono on it this week, been several years since I had a string on it. 22.2 oz, 50# @ 28"
