Hey y'all, this is the 2nd successful bow that I've made, and the first one that looks any good aesthetically. 65" NTN, 60#@28", fire hardened hickory, antler overlays, copperhead skins, and sinew wrappings. I've recently narrowed the limb tips to bring the performance up a bit. In this photo, they are 5/8" at the nock, and I narrowed them to 3/8". Before narrowing the tips, it was shooting a 618 gn arrow at 134 fps, and after narrowing it is shooting at 155 fps.
