BowEd:
Your so right Simon.A little removal can make a difference.
Once settled in good there are no problems then and they stay balanced.I don't want anyone to feel that it's that overwhelming to get a string on these type bows.

Guess a person could say I have an obsession for reflex.....Here's a few pictures of a different bow/similar style that I made some time ago.60" TTT. 48#'s @ 28".Before tillering it rested with 15" of reflex.After tillering and shooting it in it rests with 12".
Most reflex I've ever tillered a bow from myself.
Outstanding performance numbers from this bow.
Before tillering.

after tillering.

At brace.String dead nuts down the center.

full draw.

The primitive stringer was just enough to get a string on this one.This bow draws smooth as butter.

Buckskinner:
I saw BJrogg's post about Ed's extreme profiles on the Elm thread and had to do a search.  I don't know how I missed this one, but it deserves a bump.  That is a sweet bow and crazy profile!

TimBo:
I thought I was up to date on this thread, but missed those last photos as well.  That is really a shocking amount of reflex!

bassman211:
If their is a perfect bow you are building them Ed. Your bows are some thing special. You are right up their with the best of the best.

BowEd:
I just threw that bow out there a little while ago to show others not to be afraid to push the envelope.
The bow should be drawn to about 30" to really appreciate it's performance.
A lot of heartache can happen along the way,but in the end it's worth it to me.
