strike plate out makes spine...?
« on: July 19, 2010, 03:05:00 PM »
Does building up the strike plate make an arrow stiffer or weaker or neither? I'm speaking about a take down BW recurve.

Unless you shoot left-handed.

Just kidding.  One of the few things that isn't backwards for us lefty shooters.  :)
