mikekeswick:
That bow looks very nice Marc.
I notice that the belly only seems to have some 'dark' patches from the heat treating left? I persume you treated it when still too heavy and removed the coloured wood as tiller progressed..my question is do you think it's worth heat treating it again once final tiller is reached? Or is one treatment enough? Have you noticed any differences between the two methods.
Did you narrow the limbs any time during tillering? At only 1 1/2 inches wide that must be pretty dense hhb?
Would you mind explaining the reason for the deflex near the handle.
Sorry for all the questions!
soy:
Wow, that is one I'm going to try! What did you use to bend the tips it looks sharper than say a coffee can.great job ;)

Badger:
I think you have a winner their Mark, flight bows don't need a ton of reflex. At 52" long it should be able to deliver a lot of energy to a very light arrow. Looking forward to hearing how she does.
