That's real nice Kenny, I like it! Looks smooth from where I'm sitting, hows it shoot?
Oh yeah, 64" TD longbow, 55# @ 28" shoots real good , but quite a bit higher than the 45#er!
A couple more...

knock out job !!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Those close-ups made a difference. Sweet looking riser. I never thought much about take-downs until I started paying attention to some of the work I see here.
Beautiful bow Kenny! Looks like a winner.
Very Nice
Very nice Kenny. Especially like the full draw tiller shape - nearly arc of the circle.
Oooooh yeah, those close ups of the riser are awesome! I couldn't see that in the first pics, very very nice.
Thanks guys, the riser is almost too busy to suit me, but I'm kinda a plain guy! ;)
At my measly 28" draw, very smooth, at 31" the string is almost square with steady increase of 2.5# per inch to there.
Kenny,
Thay just keep getting better, can't wait for your plans to be released! I agree about the riser, I'm a plain guy to.
Pete
awsum!
Kenny, excellent work as usual, you make it look so easy.....Dan
Thanks guys! This was built from mostly leftover pcs.
Got a barrel full of stuff that won't make 2 matching pairs for back/belly ,so I mix em in bows I build!
Zebra belly,jatoba back.
I don't mind different woods on each side as long as the top/bottom limb matches.
I like the lines Kenny nice work for sure. Got to put together an order to you for some more toy parts.
Very nice bow Kenny! The limb profile looks great as does the riser!!
Dang Kenny, that's a nice looking bow. If it shoots the same way it looks, the deers better stay away from you.

I can sense the deer hiding in the woods in the background of your first pics. They are emanating worried consternation! :)
It's plain to see in your full draw photo that there is room for more draw without stack. Methinks you yave a winning design there. :goldtooth:
Thanks!
Monterey, it drew to 31" without change from the 2.5# per inch. I couldn't go anymore than that with my handheld scale. Need to rig it to my shooting machine somehow.
Should have plans ready to go by end of year. Workin on the 62/64" plans now,nearly done with em, then on to the 58/60"
Can visualize an order for plans and lams when the 62/64 is ready!!
Kenny have you built a 58"-60" yet? My riser is nearly identical to yours but is 17" end to end. A bit long for the 58" I built but it shoots great at my 28" draw. I'm looking at modifying the riser to make it 14"-15" for the 58-60" bow.
Galen, only in a one piece, but the riser is 18" on it.
Kenny beautiful work my man! Thanks for all of the awesome lams you have been sending me I posted a couple of pics on here finally of them.
