That bend profile on those limbs looks a lot like a BL bow I was working on several years ago.  I had to abandon it because it was too unstable

  I have a question Mark, maybe a couple of questions. What amount of reflex did you finally settle on as being optimum for your designs? By reflex, I mean how far behind the back of the bow were the tips.

Just saw this Ryan. If you want to come my way next spring I can probably find a field we can shoot in.

I’d love to get to the flats sometime. If you head that way please contact me prior.

That would be great BJ. I’ll keep that in mind and let you know!

The bow I was working on had a deflex handle profile like I normally make them and the tips were set back several inches.  Unfortunately I don't have pictures, or if I did I can't find them

Ryan: thoroughly enjoying your bow building and those splices on the hickory bow are outstanding imho.

I love the hickory. You may get a first appearance record with that bow. 46# may be 50# in the Utah desert. I always have plans to make a few new bows every year for the shoot. Last few years I’ve been busy and time got away and I show up with one new one a year. I’m going with old school hybrid designs in my near future. Short and strained. Like Sleek, I’m also going for the 400 yard goal and 300 with broadhead over records right now. I’m just going with different designs than Kevin.
