Beautiful Bows! A pleasure to look at . Maxx
Holy Smokes that thing looks awesome :thumbsup:
that is a very nice looking bow. Iam unclear on how the limbs attatch.
went to your site I see now thanks
Plumber,
Mounting hardware is built into the limb that uses two allen bolts coming through the back of the riser to secure the limbs to riser.
Thanks for all the kind words,you guys are great!
I'm excited on the recurves I'm testing right now with the same design, soon to be available.

Curt, you are a true craftsman. Those are some of the best looking woods I have ever seen period! Keep up the good work. :thumbsup:
-Leonard-
thwe limb mounting is exceptionally nice.Love the way it mates up.I would love to shoot and hold one of these.Great bowyer here.
That is some very good looking woods.
Man the first upclose pics of the riser scared me,kinda looks like you got Sasquatch hands!! :biglaugh: :biglaugh:
Very nice looking for sure, but there are two sides to every story, how does it shoot and how quiet is it. anybody put one threw a chrony yet ??
Howler,
Very good questions.
It is very quiet(bare string) with virtually zero hand shock, as for speed I have put my bows through a chrono and got high and low numbers,it was inconsistent on the one I used(friends old unit) so I purchased one and will provide that info shortly.
Most of my bows have gone to hunters and to them shoot-ability is more of a concern then speed but I have had positive feed back for both.
I will continue to experiment with different performance core materials other than carbon in the future to find out what the limit is with my design.
Archery is great,always room to try new things!
Oh my! Beautiful.
Martin
Thanks all for the very kind words,you truly are a great bunch of people,its really quite moving,you have no idea,thank you

quiet and vib: bow is very quiet and has almost no shock after the shot. the string doesnt even have cat whiskers on it and its more quiet then my beeler, more quiet then any of the bows i have or had.
speed: out of all the bows I have owned this one seems the fastest. deffinatly faster then my beeler and my 66" hybrid which was also a quick bow. speed wise it is fast enough for me with my short draw. dont have to hold over very much at 30 yds and my arrows are around the 550gr area.
i shoot this bow much better than the others i have owned or shot.
Curt, this bow is outstanding!! Not only is the bow beautiful, I can appreciate your attention to detail.
Good info Mark
"the howler"
trust me if i didnt like this bow and think it was worth every penny it would be up for sale right now and i would be searching for another. i might try to run in through the chrono tomorrow at the proshop when i go to shoot there indoor 3d set up.
sawtooth if you do get a chance do you have a 500 grain arrow or a tad more ??

Beautiful bow! That must be one of those skinny arrows, because I can't even see it. :archer2: :dunno:
Allan
the main arrows i use are roughly 568gr
i have some others that weigh about 500 gr,maybe a little less.
ill bring both and try to get numbers.
I can't say enough for the one Curt made me,fast,stable in the hand and very easy to shoot.
curt your bows are a work of art thnaks Shane
Beautiful!!
sawtooth those 568 grain arrows would be great...
