My friend and test pilot JT gave the BooYew primitive a good work out. It was V windy and shooting a flight arrow down wind made 345yards.We did some roving too. I noticed the bow looked very slightly weak in the lower limb, but I think some of that is JT 's grip bearing the weight of the heel of the hand (probably typical for warbow weight bows). That shift in where the weight is taken makes a very subtle difference but a little grip re shaping and maybe a tiny scrape off the upper limb will re balance it.
I won't do anything without carefully studying it on the tiller as camera angle and other factors can sometimes fool the eye.

The boo Yew at full draw, and, top left shot was me misjudging the tail wind on the final rove shot... Whoops!
Great shot at the bottom. Really shows the concentrated power.
