Sneak peak.
Selfbowman:
Well the bow came in at 20.9 oz. 50@27 shot one arrow between 220-230 several times. Shot a 500 gr arrow 200 plus. It lost half of the reflex from fade to mid limb in set. Good bow. May need to do a stretch test on this bow.
Selfbowman:
Here is the cross sections of the limbs.
mmattockx:
Interesting experiment, Arvin. What weight are you aiming for? I'm interested to see how it works out.

Selfbowman:
It’s fifty at 27” right now. I’m thinking taking some more off the outer limbs and tiller to about 48@ 28 and try shooting it there. The mass on my simple composite BBO that shoots 260 yds is 18.9 oz. This bow is 20.9 oz. The handles are almost identical. I think it’s the thick bamboo backing that is lighter.both bows come in at 50 @27. I think the one ounce in each limb is the difference. I’m open to other theories.

Are the back profiles the same on both bows? Width? Any set yet in tillering?
