Whom best in US could reduce pull weight on a Don Adams ELB?

(1/3) > >>

Lefty38-55:
My best friend has an ELB that pulls 63 pounds at 28”. As he is getting older, this is becoming too much. What is a reasonable number that this bow could be re-shape and tillered for?  Would it be possible to get it to 50 pounds?

Who would people recommend for such a task?

Del the cat:
IMO.
taking off 10# is ok, I wouldn't think people would want to take off much more, mind it depends on the bow.
If it's a laminate, it depends how much belly lam is on there.
Unfortunately I'm in UK, but to me, it's not a long job, couple of hours if it's possible. Longer if you want all the finish removed and it re-finished.
Other opinions may vary etc.
