Most of bows i have made, are sinew backed. Now i want to sinew elm bow and elm bow must be well heat-treated. As much there is no chance to heat treat finished bow with sinew backing, i must first finish the bow and then to sinew back it. I know, its embarrassing, but i discovered that i have no idea how much extra draw weight sinew would give
...
If somebody knows, then please let me know
.. Let talk about combed sinew, then the sinew thickness is nearly the same.
