Nice looking bow.  If you're not the maker, who is?

I've been making something similar but with a flat main limb.  Maybe next time I'll try adding some reflex/deflex.

WOW what a nice bow!  Next time you build one, remember to take a full draw pic so we can enter it into the Bow of the Month contest!   :)  Looks like it woulda been a great contender!  :)

Beautiful work, last bow I built, I forgot to take the full draw pic, but at least I had one of it on the tiller.
It went to a good home where it's getting used, so I s'pose I shouldn't be sad bwahh, bwahhhh :'(;)
