Patrick has made probably the most powerful bow for its draw weight ive ever seen. He isnt on here much anymore, but his handle is Lebhuntfish.
It was built using this (his original) form.

    I misspoke earlier. It is the Gary Davis form that I adapted as my regular.

I copied Gary's for at MoJam many years ago and it's the only reflex for I have ever used.  My D/R form is an adjustable model that I also copied from a MoJam form that was made by Patrick Bumgardner.

complicated things. but something happening for sure, you can see that on the chart too.


a compressive force acting linear on the limb in addition to the compression due to bending?
maybe why such designs are more prone to compression failures?

Good point willie. when the string touches the bow gets shorter virtually? complicated things. but something happening for sure, you can see that on the chart too. we here check only the angle at fd.
Tuomo, its autodesk fusion - pretty cool software for 3d design. they even had a FEA analysis addon, not for free version tough... :)

Isn't it the shallow angle at brace that gives the high early draw weight and increases stored energy?
whereas  excessive angle at full draw leads to stacking or an increase in apparent draw force but  not stored energy?

Interesting analysis for string angle! Let's see what you can get from these. By the way, what is the program you use?

Sorry for the delay
It won’t let me post it here from my phone. I added the image to the website
