So I keep making a club. I'm looking to get a sense of what the dimensions of wood need to be if I'm making a 40# ELB win bamboo backed hickory with a Carbon Bamboo Core.
I want it to look like it bends in the handle... and it could. It needs to look right. I look at the bickerstaff website and they make them with 4 layers. But I know that thre is alot of LSs added for each seam so I'm mystified as to how they do that and don't get a 300 lb bow.
I'm looking to make a simple straight stick that bends uniformly with a round belly. This shouldn't be this hard.
