BBI R/D
« on: May 29, 2009, 11:38:30 am »
Here is a Reflex Deflex Bamboo backed Ipe bow I finished up a little while ago.. It is 60" NTN 38# at 28" the handle is Hickory and osage with a osage power lam.. Limb tip over lays are osage and kingswood.. At this draw weight it is a very pleasant bow to shoot and suprizingly quick At 172fps at 10gr per pound..

Wow, another super nice bow! 172fps out of a 38# bow... that's amazing... super efficient. Nice work, as usual.

Another nice one David!  That's one of your high r/d bows isn't it?  I haven't started on the one I got from you yet, but hope I can get it to perform that well.  Nice job!

Thank's guy's.. Brownhillboy It is one of the High reflex deflex. This design in the 55# range performs a little better than it does at the lower weights but it does well all around so you can expect to get numbers close or a bit better than these.. Let me know when you get started and I will help you as much as possible with it..

Another Beauty.  172FPS out of a 38# bow :o.  Who needs f-glass. ;)  The bow looks great as do the wood combinations.  I can't wait to get mine shooting.  Really nice work.

Really nice! Like the braced profil very much; sort of tells you it's a fast bow!

That is a radical R/D.  I wouldn't even know where to start tillering that bow.  Beautiful work.  I love that contrast in the wood.
