whats you estimate on draw weight,, when it was braced

Pat B:
Brad, it pulled off to one side as soon as I got tension on the bow string so I unbraced it and heated and bent the levers over a bit. I need to pre-stretch the new string for it too to be able to brace it. I'm going down to my shop now to shape the levers and tips then I'll try to brace it again.

Pat B:
Brad, I just low braced the bow(used push/pull) and put it in the tree with the bow scale. She pulled 33#@22" so that works out to about 45#@26" maybe a bit less. I still have a little adjusting to do but the levers are long enough I might pike it an inch or so on each limb which will bring the weight up some. She does seem to draw pretty smoothly.
