Title: measuring bow length
Post by: redhillwoods on January 04, 2019, 02:54:15 pm

 When measuring the length of a recurve, do you measure the full length of the stave flat or flip the tips then measure the shorter length?

  Functionally a recurve becomes shorter but it's still better to measure actual bow length along the curves.

If I'm posting a recurve on here I usually give both measurements. At least I think I do ;D ;D
