Finally had the time to put some arrows through this baby today and wanted to report that she shoots as nice and smooth as she looks. Sent a whole bunch of arrows into the backyard target this afternoon and it sure does bury 'em deep, a hunting weapon for sure. The draw weight is just perfect for me as well, love it.

I think Dave should enter this one for BOM and I hope he does. I took a few more pics. today because I know he was having issues with his camera phone. Hope I captured some of the beauty in his work.
Last pic is me giving the bow the thumbs up after putting the first 60 arrows thru her and unstringing.
I would have given it two thumbs but I only had one hand free and didn't want to put the bow down. :)
I restrung it after that pic. and shot quite a few more arrows.

I like those short, bendy bows, Dave, that's a sweet looking one.
