New bow, again
« on: September 02, 2012, 01:29:37 pm »
The one thing I love about self bows are they can be retillered whenever you decide to change to a lighter bow. I just got mine retillered for the upcoming deer season and she is shooting like a dream. I took a lot of the wood off the sides and not so much of the belly and didn't have to do much retillering. Those Osage self bows can really last a lifetime and as you get older  can adapt to your hunting needs. I guess you could say they are the perfect bow. Watch out deer here I come.lol

I agree with Cam.  It's all hearsay and rumour until we see the photos!   >:D

Also with taking wood off the sides, you reduced the mass of the limbs more than just lost draw weight.  The bow should shoot pretty quick for it's weight.

Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.
