Title: Rushed it
Post by: AKAPK on December 03, 2008, 10:48:42 pm

 Yes I rushed it end of the year rush But it shoots really straight and true groups 6 Aroos 4 inch at 10 yards 45@28 66" About one inch of set, No  Visible Chrysals, Didn't want to pike it but I did tiller the fades and tips More Kinda swamped the colors

Looks like a shooter to me. It does'nt have to be perfect to be a meat maker. If my opinion matters...looks like the inner third of midlimb is flat on the right side ilmb. That little semi hinge on the outer third might dissapear if you lightened up that inner mid limb section a bit. Just my humble obvservatiion.    Danny

Thats what I said, this is the first hichory bow I had the Belly with a round instead of flat I wanted to see if it would reduce set but I did'nt think of chrysal then we'll see.PK
