Recurve or reflex deflex BW

Hopefully not wasting peoples time but am looking for a bw that is around the #50 mark as im looking to try something a little different. Also might be interested in other nice shooting bows around the same weight, plus or minus. Hopefully moving a car soon so should be able to sneak a bow out of it...

Those chasing photos send me email or phone number in pm and I will flick them through. The files are too big to post and too painful on the "smart phone" to sort out. One set of photos sent.

Re: Keeping skins

Thanks woodie. So I don't need to be walking around with a bag of salt it my pack? I heard iodised salt is no good if you plan to tan? So it's alright to skin them, roll them up (fur facing out?), until you get home and scrap the excess fat off and string them out?

Thanks for your help.

Keeping skins

Just after some advice, let's say that I want to keep some of the skins from animals that have been harvested. What's the best way from field to using them that gets the best results.

Foe instance if I got a rabbit and have skinned it, what would be the process after that?

Osage orange

Does anyone know how to get onto some Osage orange for a self bow or is that like asking where all the deer hang out. Bit iffy on getting something internationally as the dollar is garbage and I don't trust it.

Re: Spine question

So moving on from spine. My nock is high when I bareshaft. I have been moving my nocking point higher? Does that sound right? With a bow square (Carter) I have gone higher than the last etched lines. Still seems to be nock high. Could it be a flaw in my form causing it?
