I like the look of that Mark.

It definitely has a look that sets it apart.

I like the bend. Could be an illusion or camera angle but the left limb looks shorter??

Yeah,  I thought it looked like it was unwinding a bit more than the right side.   Camera angle and not tillered yet though.

Love the lines of that bow and I can't wait to see it once the finish hits that wood!

Nice design and work! Like how the tip overlays sync with the riser.
