I fired some arrows out of mine yesterday. They had 125 grain tips and made from boo, so way too heavy at 200 plus grains. But it still sent them down range with some serious thump. I need to lessen the weight. I get 18# at about 7". Id like that at 11".

I think Pearly is waiting on the US Patent and Trademark Office to complete the prior art and citations research before he publishes any pics of his device.  Can't be too careful with game changing innovations and intellectual property rights in the field of MiniBowyery!!!   :o ::) ;D

All I will say is 1.0" long statics can be bent in easily with no damage.

Little turd really spits an arrow. I was shooting 15 yards in my basement and couldn't follow the arrow very easily with my eyes. I scaled it 23 @ 10".

  Good job on that bow Pearly! When judging the speed of scaled down bows instead of shooting them say at 10 grains per pound you would shoot them at 10 grains per pound of stored energy. If you shot that little bow with about a 75 grain arrow it would probably go about as fast as your big bows.

I didn't weigh my arrows Steve, I will tonite. The tip weight is 30 grains and the shaft is 1/4 poplar, I nock tapered them to create more FOC. They look pretty slick and I'm quite sure its working for me based on arrow flight.
