Red oak shorty

(1/3) > >>

Kegan:
I'm in the process of making a short little red oak "stalker". It's gonna be 55" long with 2" wide limbs. So far I'm drying in a reflex plus what is already there and plan to recurve it. But I do have a few quesitons:

1. Static or working recurves?

2. Does it have to be backed?

3. Should the handle work/bend?

Thanks in advance!

Badger:
Kegan, what kind of draw weight and how far do you plan to draw it. Steve

Justin Snyder:
What draw length?  Justin

Justin Snyder:
Steve, Looks like you were posting while I was typing.  ::) Justin

Badger:
Every item you mentioned has an impact on the best width for the bow, reflex, stiff or beny handle?
