Wow. What an absolute GEM of a bow! How much set returns after unstrung?

I agree Arvin. That’s quite a looker. Hope it per as good as it looks. Curious how the mass weight came out?

I had to 25 to check weight . It won’t go to 25 again till it competes.  The brace shows its limbs are even. I think it was at 32oz. It’s on page five I think. If I would have took it to 28” draw I think it would end up about 28oz

Thanks Arvin, I wasn’t sure if that was the finished weight or not.
