interesting, how about some figures and a description of the woods used.
if your not dead you are getting older so get out and shoot some arrows.

Ohma, the bow is 72 in tip to tip the amo is 68 inches. the handle area is 2  inches tapering to the tip at 5/8 inches. the wood is white laminated oak 3 layers of .090 . the handle is osage, with dyed hard rock maple laminated to the bow.The osage pc is 14inches tapered as the fade out.The finish is minwax sanding sealer with t-5 plastic coat lacquer.The bow is tilled  28 inches@40 lbs. There were 3 parallels used in the laminations are the white oak.One could use a tapered laminate on the top of riser fadeout, but I chose to use a parallel.090. Hope this answers your question.I demonstrate the build up on the u-tube. Thanks Denny
