Pat that bow is awsome.

Thanks for all the nice comments. I really like the way this bow draws and shoots. it is very smooth and can easily be drawn to 29" with no stacking at all in a 62" bow. I am planning on building a recurve using this riser design when I get the time.Jbell and Dusty baer using bamboo on the belly makes for a much lighter limb with less mass. I do temper the bamboo on the belly witch greatly inceases the compression. This combo makes for a very durable limb that holds the tiller very well. Most of the tiller is made into the bow with the taper in the lams. and in the limb design. I do the final tiller by removing matrial from the sides of the limbs. Pat

    Pat, great job on that bow, I was impressed that you used a conservative deflex reflex design on this one. I bet it shoots just as well or better than some of the more radical designs. Steve

That is indeed unique, I really like the belly, how long did it take you to come up with the correct recipe to get you close on the tiller?

venisionburger I started out buy trying to take measurements from some of my bamboo backed bow and I came out pretty close on the first bow. I have try many diffrent combos before I really settled on one that I'm happy with. I can give you 1 tip I have better luck putting the reflex further down the limb than on a normal bamboo backed bow or you won't be able to tiller the limb enough and may end up with to stiff of out limb.  Pat

[Pat O]

Thanks again for all the complements.  Finnish native I may use it this spring for turkey, but I usually shoot a heavier bow a little better but I shoot this one pretty well. I never know what is going to be my shooter until closer to hunting season. Pat
