Is the early wood the weak link to cause set?

sleek, shear in beams can be across the beam or along the beam. laminar shear is what Arvin is thinking here, I believe. PM sent.your inbox is full

Cleared a spot for your pm.

Ok bow and test pieces on way to laboratory. We are going to  get to the bottom of this.
😀😀😀😀

Meanwhile I’m going to do stretch test and ring location in the limb for comparison. Pretty obvious of set. But not bad in all them. They are all 67” long. Handles vary.

Is that a burl they are sitting on?

So Arvin, what is your favorite style of bow?

[Selfbowman]

  Golly Kevin all those beautiful bows and you see the cypress table they are setting on😀. Here’s a burl.

 You sure have a style of your own! Nice to see the subtle differences in profile. Sounds like you’ve nearly perfected it based on those medals.

The two recurves on the left also come close if not braking the other ones records. We’ll see in September.

beautiful bows Arvin!  The two on the bottom look like they will do the job...that recurve with straight limbs should be good for plenty of yards.

I just hated seeing this huge thread get to page 3... I'm sure I'm not the only one looking forward to seeing how far they shoot at this year's competition.  I hope everyone is staying warm through this crazy cold spell..."below zero" coming in Texas...?  wow...
