etc shorty
« on: November 02, 2014, 12:59:18 am »
I have a 50 inch eastern red çedar  bow/stick that has a propeller twist that is just about the same on both limbs. It seems to bend straight. I have worked it to about 15 inches. Will this thing shoot straight? Rather, is there a possibility that it will?  Thanks!

I've made a couple bows with some prop twist and doesn't seem to have any negative effect.
just a small amount though

just make sure that while tillering, you look at it from both sides. Prop twist will always make the bend of one limb look steeper, depending what side you look at.
Don't shoot!

Every bow shoots straight.
