Fit for any Englishman. Pretty amazing at 22"ntn. It's shooting pencils thirdy yards ( most of which they spiral) and putting them through cardboard. Shot my actual practice arrows about fifteen yards. Made of Good ol yew of course.

What spine pencils are you using. Where do you get bodkins for them? Perhaps a barrel tapered pen might give better performance. ;)

Maybe I should try some eraser nocks!  The bow looks awesome.

I love the contrast between the ivory colored sapwood and salmon colored heartwood!  Should be the perfect bow for a very happy new born bowyer somewhere in Old Blighty.  ...don't forget to put your Bowyer's mark on her!
