Ok i shoot a 60" Great Plains one piece recurve(the one with the bamboo limbs) 50# at 28 i draw 29" to the throat of the grip, i only shoot wood shafts, sitka spruce from hildebrand i think thats how you spell it. I shoot off a brush rest at the moment, three under, fast flight string. Im ...

Ok so I have been shooting a batch of arrows out of my recurve for a while now but haven't been completely happy with them, so long story short after exhaustive paper tuning I have arrow X that is just right only problem is it is 1 and a half inches shorter than I want and 45 grains too light in the...

Nice work Rod your really coming up with some very nice bows. I am jealous of your ability.

Dan

I would like a look if you don't mind.

81 Thanks

His name is doug and he lives out the back of tiaro not really that far from cashy, he makes a nice bow, i shot about six of them on the weekend and all shot very well. He has great attention to detail as he is a carpenter and cabinet maker by trade. Doug is still new to bow making but is already ma...

You will do better than that rod as i am shooting recurve division, so you only have to go after brett.

I will be there with my wife as a part of the wide bay contingent. Going up friday morning, it will be my third time and i swear it is more fun every time i go. Especially getting to see people that you saw last time you went and catching up on a years worth.

Dan

in that case i would love one, can i pick it up tomorrow.


Dan

Do you still have belt buckles Jeff

My wife uses the no gloves on her long bow, and i will be removing them as soon as she finds a suitable tab to use. The main problems with them is at full draw they pinch the nock, you get unbelievably bad string torque and you can not get a clean release as they are rubber they sort of stick to you...

They have been removed, i didn't get to see it but i didn't like the sound of the description.

Dan

I am trying to build some arrows for my partner and i got some of those 80grain brass points with the thread inside of them but i have never used them before. What i wanted to know is what taper does the shaft need to be for them or do i need to taper at all, how do i get them on there right.

1288.6 after about 45 goes

I would have let it pass i think, there is to much risk of it all going bad on ya with that angle. It would hurt letting him go, but it would hurt more chasing him up when he didn't go down. Nice photo buy the way

Dan

I don't know about the spirit, but i have a SHB and find it to be a good bow at a reasonable price. I use mine for 3d and aba feild from time to time and have found it does the job really well, it's not the fastest bow around but i am glad i bought mine. If you do buy one get a new string made for i...
