HLD Layout and tiller question
bradsmith2010:
cant see any reason the thickness could not be reduced near handle and handle,,
backtowood B2W:
Thank you guys for your input!
Straightened out the ends a bit with the heat gun and worked at the fades and inner limb.
Resuming to the other HLD thread this is also a semi HLD - the half moon is too thick, to get the benefit from flattening out.
Funny, I also had a very similar bow explosion like that.
Still some alignment issues or maybe it just needs longer arrows. Or more weight on the tip ::)
bradsmith2010:
you can probably narrow the arrow pass a little,,
backtowood B2W:
All in all, not much wood I removed. mostly at the handle, fades and inners, doesn't work much more there but enough to prevent more set.
She ended up at 42#@27". Didn't go for the extra inch, as she started to take set again, and I really want to see through that handle!
My draw is 27" so its OK.
Did some quick and dirty paint job today. Curios if your going to like this...
First finish coats tomorrow and some pics for you...
bradsmith2010:
a little set is ok, it doesnt look so hot in a photo,,, but really from a practical standpoinit,, its not that much of an issure,,
for shooting or accuracy,, my go to bow has bout 2 inches of set,,but I shoot it the best so I dont care,, its accurate and heavy enough to be very effective,,
