Gorgeous! The Widow Works does it again... which grip is that? I have an LAG and I think they've changed it since I had it made in 2001--looks a bit slimmer.

Folks, I will post some more tonight when I return home from work. Rained last night so, couldn't get any taken. Thanks for all the great comments and believe me, it will be a while before any of my other bows get any attention.   :D  

huntryx: I believe it's just the standard grip. I didn't have them do anything to it but, it sure fits my hand perfect.

Ok, here's some braced profiles and one of me shooting. Now it has some noticeable thump to it as I don't have her tuned yet but once I get the string silencers on her, she'll be very quiet. My other PL doesn't hardly make a sound.

 (http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp233/TradNut/DSCF2776.jpg)

I set the brace at 7 3/4" and will continue to tune her once it settles in all the way. I shot it a few times to speed that process along but the rain started so I headed back in. Let me just say, "This little gem packs a punch!"   :thumbsup:

Wannabe1,  if you want good photos, do not use a white background.  Your first photos on the rug showed up nicely because the neutral rug absorbed any flash used, and didn't reflect light to mess up your camera's shutter.  White is the absolute background you can use for automatic focus cameras....especially glossy white.   Nice bow by the way....very nice.
