Thanks for the compliments guys, really made this noobs day!
Bryce- good eye! i only draw 26", but tillered to 60# at 28", for one of my long arm shootin buddies. its 57# at my draw length.
I usually bring my bows to 27" for peace of mind, you think bringing it to 28" would affect speed?
Either way, 162 fps through the chrony got me very excited. first time breakin 160
dwardo - 1"wide handle, 2.5"long fades to 1 1/4" at the widest. starts tapering to 3/8" at the nocks. not sure how to measure degree of recurve.
rounded belly, I maintained the 5/8 rule, just because I really like the look of it on yew.
