She is 60 inches N2N 45# @ 26". I built it for my wife who wanted a bow worthy on hunting big game with low draw weight. I used the static recurve design with a long handle section with long fades to reduce the area of bending limb but still have a long enough bow to achieve good accuracy and store tremendous energy with no stack. she shoots very fast indeed. I used black horn knocks and black leather shelfs and handle wrap for contrast. I have tested it at 29 inches and being my first self bow I was amazed that she did not explode on me. I do have experience with boo and hickory backed board bows but never a self backed bow. I used steam to straighten the stave and recurve the ends. I made them as thin and narrow as possible as well for more speed. I have on in the works now for my self that is 56 inch ntn after recurved with a heavy sinew back that will be covered with diamond back skin a reflexed handle and recurved tips I will post it when it is finished. I hope to achieve 60 pounds at 26 inches with it. I have read much about it which helped me along and read many of yawls chats which helped to so I though I would post this to see what yawl thought this is my first time on this sight so I hope I am doing this right. also I put a shelf on each side of the handle for lefty or righty shooting.
