In TBB1, there is a picture of Jim Hamm ( I think) tillering a bow with a bathroom scale. Does anyone else do this? I bought one yesterday and pulled what I thought was a 65 # hickory bow to 28 inches, only to find it read 80#!!! Also, I pulled the yew holmegaard which I have posted another thread about, and it came up at 45# +/- ...now, i've got a good strong back, but these bows just feel lighter than that to me...
Does anyone use these bathroom scales this way? Are they reliable?
Thanks.
