Thats the "Power Grimace" boys ;D
I was actually suprised at how easy it is to use that weight after only shooting 50-60lbs. I think it's because the bow just doesn't stack and of course the long draw. That arrow is 34.5" from the base of the nock to the base of the point so I'm getting really close to 32".
I can't wait to get out to the range and give it a blast at 70m. As for finishing, it is pretty much done. Warbows historically didn't have grips and early ones didn't have horn nocks so this is it.
Next one I'm shooting for 95lbs and longer as I think this one is a little too short with self side-nocks (I've figured out where that went wrong).
Cheers,
Grant
P.S. D. Tiller, just saw your reply, thanks for all the help with this it made a huge difference. I can't shoot in that position, there is a stump there but a miss would make for very bad neighbourhood relations.
