I dropped the weight a significant amount after the first time I assembled the bow and put the long string on it to see where it stood. I’m assuming the left main limb is the problem of being a bit string. But as I was getting everything flexing, it all seems to stay fairly even. But as soon as the backer bow went flat, the right limb popped weak. As in the bow tilted to the left hard. I’m guessing that’s where the load transfers from the backer bow to the main bow and that little difference in strength of the two limbs made the right limb take the load first. I’m wanting some more opinions before I start scraping in anything.
It looked to be about a brace level of bend about where it occurred. And it had the interesting effect of having almost no weight shift for about 3 inches of pull until the limb went weak. It pulled 50# from about 12” to the 15-16” it was in the picture. I know the long string will change the way the bows interact. But I feel like it’ll still give a general idea of how they will cooperate.
So any opinions?
Thanks,
Kyle
