 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Nice work, Eddie.
That color isn't seen every day! You can find that stick among a bunch of others easily.

I see you have concentrated most of the bending near to the fades, did you got handshock?

Thank you, Simon. Actually I felt no hand shock. And that was shooting 35/55 full length carbon arrows with 125grain points. I also tillered it so when it reached full draw the limbs opened up. It's not really bending as much as it looks in the fades, I hardly touched them.

Nice bow Eddie.  Almost looks like you got a beard there in the full draw pic

Nice bow Eddie I like the color you'll be able to hide in you pineapple patch. I saw a couple of those James Parker blanks at Marshall. Very nice.
