Marc, you may be right. The stats were posted quite a while back on ATAR, and I don't know the validity of the test or anything. But Yumis are not poor performers either.
Marc St Louis:
I know they have a longer draw Lennie but as I said, Japp went to the flight shoots last Fall and shot some of his yumis for distance.
I have no doubt that they perform quite well SM
MattE:
185+ out of a 44# bow would be phenomenal performance. I have never seen a Yumi that could perform this well.I have seen many Japanese made Yumis,I think of them as works of art, especially in the engineering department.They are beautiful bows and perform well but like the long bows of yore fantasy has overridden fact.

ps: attached is the pic of one i made the same way, seventy-some pounds at 29", 66"ntn. thisone has not an exaggerated handshock even when shoot with light target arrows.
