Looks like a good one! Where did the yew come from? I keep looking for a good enough yew stave for a 'proper longbow' but it's elluding me....

Nice bow and excellent performance.  If you fletch the light arrow with very short and low profile fletching then you will get quite a bit more distance.

Excellent  ;D.
Nice ripply stave, impressive speed.
I will be building a 90# Yew ELB for a guy in a few months, it's be interesting to see what it will do, unfortunately the stave has a bit of deflex... duno if I'll put in some reflex... dunno if I'll be able to pull it.  :laugh:
