Post by: kylerprochaska on November 09, 2009, 09:08:49 pm
I think it looks good but Im no expert and the bow only has acouple hours in it right now...osage 64" tip to tip, 40lbs @ 29"....temperred belly with dry heat induced static recurve tips (I got to play around with my new heat gun today   >:D  >:D )

I think the bottom limb could bend way more in the outer limb, but that's just me.

Looks great to me!  I like stiff outer limbs as long as the inner limbs are wide enough to take it.

Looks very much like the one I have in the works now, except mine is for a guy with a 31" pull, so it's longer. Got a bit of set in the limbs but the tips are still ahead of handle.
What's your unbraced profile look like??
