Beautiful Bow!  Tim makes it hard to keep your money in your pocket! How does the one piece tree stick compare to the one piece recurve?

I've never shot the one piece recurve but I believe the only difference is a few FPS from what I've been told.

Not yet.  Once I get her broken in and tuned up I'll shoot through a chrono.  As for guessing, I'd guess around 190 give or take.  I was shooting a BW PSR which was 45 @ 28 and it chrono'd at 176.  I'm shooting the same arrows for now until my new arrow choice test kit comes in and they seem a good bit faster.  Will post speeds in a week or two!

Well I finally got it tuned and shot through a chrono.  Shooting full length GT 3555's wrapped with a reflective wrap and 3-4" parabolic, right wing feathers and a 50gr insert with a 175gr head.  TAW is 534gr or 9.7gpp.  Shot it 4 times through a chronograph today and averaged 175 fps.  Maybe not the fastest but it sure is quiet and it shoots where I point and that's what matters to me!  Sorry I took so long getting this info!  Went through a lot of trial and error to figure it out!  But it's done and that's that!!  
Happy Hunting!!

That bow is an amazing piece of art!
I really like the stipling, too. Maybe even better than checkering for a bow handle...

Outstanding Bow! Tim makes some real Beauties for sure! That arrow speed with that weight arrow is very respectable in my book. Congrats and good hunting!

Thanks!  That's on some land my Grandmother gave me when I was born in St. Landry Parish.  My little 80 acre piece of heaven!  

I'm shooting the VPA Terminators 175gr.  Great head and easy to keep sharp!!
