Ok so the bow showed up yesterday in the rain. I ran outside to fling a dozen arrows and was impressed right away. Had to wait till today for some pics and more shootin.    

I started at 27 yards and shot this group    

I then moved up to 18 yards and tried again , man I was impressed , smooth and quiet.      
Here I am stretching her out some that is a beman mfx full length (31") didI mention smooth ?

Thanks Dave for giving me the chance to shoot this one , sweet bow  

Drew, that is one sweet looking bow.
Good thing those arrows are 31" long. Kind of running out of arrow at your draw.

Ken : I had to wait for my wife to take the pic so I let up a little which is what I do anyways as I shoot . Great bow

Cool stuff Drew!  Thanks for sharing.

Great stuff brother!
Nice bend in the limbs!

Drew,

Looks like you're a dead-eye...with all that dead rubber at your range that you kilt!!!

I've become more fascinated with static tips...I hear on here that if they're balanced well, they are pretty darned efficient and eliminate all that noise I always associated with recurves!

Man, you pull that gorgeous thing back a ways!  Nice shooting Buddy!

Nice bow. Good shooting.

Allan

Drew, great to hear that your enjoying the bow and see that your shooting it well.  

Doc Nock, that is true about the static limbs in that two well balanced limbs make a great shooting static bow.  I am not a recurve shooter at all but since building these statics, I have come to really like them.
Thanks and good shooting,
Dave

Nice shoot'n Drew ... looks like a new target might be on your Christmas list. I like the pic with you at full draw, really shows off the lines of that bow.

I agree with you Ken and looks like a winner to me.....

Thanks for all the compliments guys , this really is a sweet shooting bow . The bow just makes it easy to shoot well with a great grip and smooth draw. The static tips do add some performance for sure as well as being stable and quiet . Dave has a good design here as well as a good eye for fit and finish with beautifull wood combos .

Just think how it's going to shoot when you pull it all the way back....  

Ron , she really curves in all the right places  

Awsome looking bow Dave. I can tell it shoots great just by looking at it. A word of warning though bro. I did this and after I built and shot my first Static Recurve I was an addict at the first shot. It gets so that is all you want to do. I still build and love longbows but man I dream about my statics; Its obsessive and sooooooooooooooo much fun.

God bless and Merry Christmas, Steve

Love those statics!

Steve
I have to agree with you about the static as I am not a recurve shooter by no means.  This static I have been really getting used to and is a fun new project.  This bow really shoots similiar to the longbows I make.
Thanks and good shooting,
Dave
