zoomer, I just finished, and shot the sister stave bow this morning. Profile is much better. Same specs with same arrow. This bow shot 153 fps. Inch of reflex, but had to do multiple belly heat treat to get it. Still a little wonky.I think because , both bows were made from a large sapling, and not a large tree trunk. Both bows will work fine for deer sized animals at 15 yds, and in. Here are some pics.
