HHB Pyramid/reflex design

[Robert Pougnier]

I thought I would post one of my favorite bows.

I build this one a few years ago. Originally tillered to 45# @ 28".

After several years of shooting and several thousand shots, it developed only 1" of string follow. I recently gave the belly a new heat treat and reflexed the last 4 inches by 1 1/2 " using dry heat. Poundage increased to 50# and string follow after about 250 shots fell to zero.

It's a stable a smooth shooter and with the right arrows I've had tight groups at 60 feet. I love this bow, particularly the worm patterns that were hiding underneath the cambium.
