I Never Break Bows.

[Josh B]

I would say the confusion comes in when comparing different profile styles.  For instance  a narrow stacked elb  will be more center shot than  a Cherokee flat bow with its rectangular  flat profile.  Even though, they will both be a d-tiller bow.  I don't remember  the specifics of the article  so I am guessing  that was the case.  If you could tell me which issue  that article was in , I will revisit  it.  Josh

The widest part of a bendy handle bow isnt necessarily at the handle. When i build a bendy handle bow i narrow the handle enough to make it comfortable and closer to centershot. You have to thicken the handle up a little bit where it narrows but not so much that it doesnt bend at the handle.
