Title: Draw wieght question
Post by: david w. on July 26, 2008, 08:58:48 pm

I am working on an oak pyramid bow thats 2" at the fades and tapers to 1/2" at the tips.

What do you think is the max amount of draw weight i coould get from it?  I would like to get about #60

it depends on how long it is, how thick, and what drawlength. oaks pretty tough, id say you could probably get 60 out of it if its worthy.
