Del the cat:
Nice video. I like the economical style, no excess leaping about.
We'll happilly take your word for the length, now it's increased by 10"  ;)
Great bow, nice tiller (yes I did agree on the stiff top limb)

Davepim:
Correct Del, I'd meant to post it originally as 73" not 63" - a slip of the keys and no wonder adb was a bit doubtful! ;) - the "lie" was the draw-weight which was 110 not 120, looking back on it! :-[ And by the way that is Glennan Carnie, not me shooting the bow, as he was the customer.

Ian.:
Glennan is really going for that, is this a new one you made him? I am sure I would have seen it by now, if it is new I hope to see it at Swindon, really spits them out.

Del the cat:
Late in the year I'll be making a 100# @32" for someone. My dilema is should I train myself up to shoot it? (just a few shots will do me) It's prob going to be my last chance to go over 100# as I'm not getting any younger, mind I don't mant to screw up my elbows and knuckles. (the shoulders can take it no prob). Shot 90# at 28" over a year ago, and that was tough, but the 100# at 32" will prob be about the same as that one at 28"... it's just a matter of getting over the top and into the bow for the last few inches... piece of cake ::)  ;)

This thread is making me want to successfully complete my goal of making a yew warbow pushing 100# more than ever.  I so badly want to be able to join the EWBS using a bow I've made myself!  I'm only 24 though, so I've got time... Patience, patience...
