Title: Bow length Wood verses Fiberglass
Post by: AndyTurner on September 10, 2020, 05:42:17 am
Hi I bought some 0.04” fibre glass to play with for belly & back.

In the wood world, bow length = 2xDrawLength + Riser length

I believe you can go shorter with fibre glass. Is there a similar general rule of thumb for fibre glass?

Thanks
Andy

Yes.  Don't talk about it on here.

Hi Pat,

Sorry for using the F word on here but could you point me in the right direction for making an AFB using FG?

Thank you
Andy
