Brian, I can see where you could relieve the outer limb on that one limb I can see in the pic and that would give you an inch. If the other limb is similar there is another inch.

There is a little deflex kink in the top limb. With just a little twist. It does look a little stiff in the outers though. Might have to put it on the tree again. I don’t remember it looking that way on the tree.

I might be able to squeeze a little more draw and relieve some stress without losing weight.

That’s a really sweet little bow for sure. Very impressive work Brian.

Nice bow!
I'm betting Dave will be glad he gave you that stave.

Great bow, great name, short and sweet, but with a good punch (reminds me of my wife  >:D )

Thank you Brian.

Burnsie I text him some full draw pictures. Before I sanded, put skins on and five coats of try oil. I put a leather handle on to

Del sounds like you might not want to get her steamed up!

Here’s a picture of Tea Pot hanging in line with some of my other bows. The first three (actually 4 but you probably can’t see the fourth one. Are bend through handle bows. 60” or less and they look pretty long next to Tea Pot
