What do you think? Will it be a shooter?
« on: December 12, 2014, 02:59:00 PM »
Hey guys this is my next design:
 

My plan is:
64" at 55#ish
Total stack. .40
Total taper. .004
18" riser
1.5" at fades .375 at tips
5" tip wedges
Power lam
Shelf Cut .125 past center

Thoughts?

She looks real nice! Keep updating the pictures, can't wait to see how the strung profile looks.

I personally would lengthen the deflexed section. Spreading the deflex over a larger radius curve and make the reflexed section apex at 2/3rd's of the way along the limb with the reflex being added elliptically.

Wow mike your are kinda right. I had never heard of that company, that's kind of a bummer. Oh well, I guess it's true what they say " there really is nothing new to this game " guess it will do alright then if someone has a company with a very similar design.
