80" White Elm Warbow Build-along
Ian.:
The Standard arrow is 800 grain (52 gram). Though even then based on the bow I wouldn't expect it go go massively more than the bigger arrow. Just the limb speed of these bows means most arrows unless in the extremes will go near enough the same distance. My guess 240-50 would be a good shot with a Standard arrow out of this bow.
Marc St Louis:
Looks really good. I didn't see a picture of the bow unbraced. Did the bow take uniform set?
Del the cat:
nice pics, great tiller and FD curve. :laugh:

That scale shows zero at 31".. is that some sort of let off like a compound? ;) ::) >:D

Yup, it's a new cam development, with 100% let-off :)
Here's an unbraced profile Marc. The lower limb appears to have a little more set in the outer limb, but it's hard to say if it took even set, since there were a few tip alignment corrections during the tillering, and some mild reflex would have been added to portions of the limbs in the process.
I wiped on some stain (actually, it is an antique gel made for leather) to the belly before applying the finish, because I wanted the grain to "pop" a little bit more, and it also gave it a two-tone effect (wannabe-yew ;) )
WillS:
Beautiful Cam. Real nice job!
