That is one wild bow. The finished product is impressive. Nice job.

very nice bow, nice work and a nice looking stave to start with. I wish I could split wood like that, it always seems to shoot off to one side when I split wood

176 fps?  For 40# that is the fastest speed I have ever heard of

I made a Slingshot that Shoots Arrows...that Chronied at 160....so why can't a 40# Bow do it too...... ???

Be sure to give me a heads up about a final product from this build-along. I stay pretty busy with entry under "BOWS" and may miss it.
