Thinking about sinew

paulsemp:
I think you shot this one Brian at elm hall one year. If I remember right it's about 46 in Long maybe an inch wide and maybe a half inch thick. Sinew backed with sinew string. Somewhere in the mid-40s around 22 or 23 in. Shoots with authority but I never figured out how to be consistent with such a short bow

That's always been my hang-up with really short bows:  How to be consistent without an anchor point.  I think I'd have to go back in time, pull a Ryan Gill and start shooting when I was a toddler.  It's a shame, too, because a bow like that would be awfully handy in an antelope blind.

usually when I cant be accurate with one,, really the bottom line is I havent put in the time and effort I did with longer bows,,

100% agreed.

Yeah I remember that one Paul.

23” is almost my normal full draw
