I have recently bought a new longbow that has a pronounced R/D design.
At brace the upper limb has quite a pronounced "snakiness" to it when viewed along its edge from handle to tip. The lower limb has a similar shape but to a lesser extent.
Is this a common shape with a severe R/D design?This is the 1st "higher end" bow that I have bought and am a little concerned.
I have contacted the bowyer and was told not to worry, it wouldn't affect the shootability or durability.
I paid, what is for me, quite a lot of money for this bow and think that if I should ever wish to sell it the re-sale value may be affected by the uneven bend in the limbs.
I really would welcome opinions from those with way more archery experience than myself.
