All I can say is ... WOW! One layer of sinew gave it an honest 55 lb @ 28" draw! A 10 pound increase. I may have layed it on thicker than is normal for 1st layer. This is my 1st sinew backed bow.
I used deer leg sinew from Mike Yancy at Pine Hollow longbows. He's a sponser here and great to do business with!
Bundles were about 3/8 to 1/2" when flattened out. Tiller looks a little off in this pic and it may be but it shoots so good I'm going to leave it as is.
This bow has some awesome character.
If you look close you can see the edge of the bow string at the top of the handle on the(your right) side. It makes this bow almost center shot.
