 This is one of those threads that you can age along with the wood.

I might be out of my league here but dont u think if a guy can bench over 1000lbs.  dont mean he can pull a bow at 200...You push to bench and pull the bow.  Hey but I would love to see the bow and it to bend at full drAW

zodiac703:
That's pretty ambitious. Firstly youll need a lot of wood to take the straind and secondly you should make its main mass in the centre of the bow so your cast will be higher. Aim for a longbow as making a recurve is more efficient with smaller bows. perhaps using heavy arrows will be more suitable for such a high draw weight.

Thought I'd post an update. I made a new video of me pulling the 149#@33" boo backed hickory warbow Jim made me and also there is a new video on his channel of Marlon Torrez aka Heavybows pulling the 225#@34" warbow Jim showed us in his other video.
