Wow that bow looks ridiculously fun to shoot, I bet it has absolutely no hand-shock since those tips look real light and narrow....

Congrats!!!

What?s the origin of this corner bow?
Have you speed- tested it, it has to be very fast, faster than the Turkish- styled bow?
This corner bow looks great and very well thought over.

@Redhawk : This bow is very similar to Assyrian style bows in stone reliefs found west of Iran, (search: Ashurbanipal) & also the bow of Darius the great, KIng of Persia, and his guards, (search: Darius rock relief)

Thanks, zarasp, yes that?s it. I?ve realized the "corner" in Assyrian bows.
The deflexed "corner- bow- design" seems to be the fastest possible bow- design.
