Heat Treated Hickory

snedeker:
Mighty nice.  How much reflex didi you start with?

Dave

Kegan:
Nugget- I'm not that experienced in it, so you'll have to ask one of the guys that really know what they're tlaking about, but you can heat in a reflex. I tried it a little byt string the bow backwards a little. I believe that Gordan uses this method (but I'm not sure) and I know Tpoof heated in a recurve in a small elm recurve.

Dave- None- it was straight. It still hasn't taken any more set. Hence my suprise at the power of heat treating :o.

nugget:
Thanks . I will try it. I have a hickory bow in process right now.
