Once I get it home here I will do a test report and have a friend take some pics to show off Chad's handy work.

Thanks Ken, this bow is a real Gem. Great cast, smooth to full draw and it just loves my 50-55 cedars. I even had a few good arrows left handed, and having shoot righty for over 40 years that's really something. Again my hats off the Chad Holm's ability to craft a real fine bow!

Glad it made it.  This is the first dual shelf I built.  Even though it is a relatively light weigh bow I really beefed up the riser.  I used bubinga for it's toughness and put a 1/4" fiberglass "I beam" though it.  I also overlayed the sight window with multiple layers of figerglass.  I think it turned out alright.  Good luck ya ol switch hitter.  Shoot something with it now.  Chad

I got this to try left handed shooting being left eye dominate. Wanted to have a bow light in poundage to shoot 3-D and stumps for a long time. As I get older I find I can cope with lower weight much better and can keep my target panic at bay! Really had no intentions of hunting with it. After shooting it for a few sessions I can see I was wrong in my thought process. I may have to take it to the woods and see if we can get a shot! We shall see!!

Wowser of a bow!
Goshawk. Accipiter gentilis.
How fitting!

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.
