Very nice bow! The design looks a little like my Cayuga. You just have to love those narrow limbs.

Weather finally bettered here and shot it the past few days. Very windy though. Arrows appear a bit stiff so I got some tinkering to do. Put my SBD string on it since it had whiskers - other string didn't and had some vibes after playing with the brace - SBD was nice and quiet. The SBD may be the culprit too. I had it on another longbow and my arrows read stiff. Put the stock string back in that bow and got good arrow flight. Same thing with the SBD on my Whip - read stiff.

update: I was able to get out and shoot yesterday between rain drops. Oddly I'm not getting the same weak read as previously thought.  When I shot prior, it was a windy day so that and perhaps an inconsistent release led to my thinking shots appeared weak. Yesterday's wind was calm and I have to say that I focused on a consistent release and things improved. SBD string looks not to be a factor.
