31" - to draw, or not to draw

<< < (3/3)

alanesq:

It looks to me like it is on the point of developing a hinge on both limbs and so it would be best to try to stop this happening by removing some wood first - but then you are going to reduce the draw weight....

So I think I would be tempted to leave well alone and call it finished

------------

btw - Wouldn't a bow which is difficult to draw for a given final draw weight be preferable ?
i.e. the harder it is to draw the more powerful it is going to be   (essentially a higher initial draw weight giving higher draw weight at all draw lengths up to full draw)

as long as it isn't so short it starts stacking at the end of course
