Bows / Re: The best shape for a reflexed bow?
« Last post by Bob Barnes on Today at 08:00:01 pm »Patrick has made probably the most powerful bow for its draw weight ive ever seen. He isnt on here much anymore, but his handle is Lebhuntfish.It was built using this (his original) form.

I copied Gary's for at MoJam many years ago and it's the only reflex for I have ever used. My D/R form is an adjustable model that I also copied from a MoJam form that was made by Patrick Bumgardner.

a compressive force acting linear on the limb in addition to the compression due to bending?
maybe why such designs are more prone to compression failures?

Tuomo, its autodesk fusion - pretty cool software for 3d design. they even had a FEA analysis addon, not for free version tough...

« Last post by willie on Today at 05:05:06 pm »Isn't it the shallow angle at brace that gives the high early draw weight and increases stored energy?
whereas excessive angle at full draw leads to stacking or an increase in apparent draw force but not stored energy?
