High gear/low gear
DC:
I've been reading this old thread https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/paleoplanet69529/a-quick-study-of-the-stiff-limbed-hickman-thought--t16901.html that PatM gave me a link to. It talks a lot about high low gear bows. I understand the concept, I think, but can someone tell me about the hardware. What are the physical differences between the two?
DC:
I think maybe Alan is explaining at least some of it in this thread https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/paleoplanet69529/longbow-airbow-virtual-build-along-t16569.html
I'm still reading it. :D
DC:
I've finished reading. Interesting stuff. Now what is a high gear bow and what is a low gear bow?
PatM:
You find lots of gearing info on other threads on that forum. There was some debate as to whether gearing truly exists.
DC:
I've bookmarked it and am slowly reading my way through it. It hasn't been very active in the last 2 years. As a ratio between tip movement and nock movement I would say it exists but whether it's of any use, I dunno.
