Ben you'll love this design its fast but still very easy to shoot!

When designing, I first looked for the easy shooting, the decent speed was a bonus. Tho I'd like to claim to be a rocket scientist bow designer.

Thanks, it was an easy way for me to have a two tone riser without having a planer. I could just take the two best sides and glue them together.

Thanks for the additional pictures. Looks nice. Did you stick with Kenny's design exactly or did you modify it a little. Reason I ask is because it looks like it has less R/D then other bows made from Kenny's pattern.

Nice bow, what are the stats..? Or did I miss a post.

ny state land · « **Reply #34 on:** April 01, 2015, 07:08:00 PM »

No I stuck to his design. Maybe because its a 62? Its got excellent speed. 52#@28"62" bow. His form is great!

Dave check the unstrung pic on the first page

kennym · « **Reply #36 on:** April 01, 2015, 07:23:00 PM »

Stacy, if you left the limbs full width a bit farther to pick up a couple # , the tips are most likely showing less reflex from the usual?

That's my only theory.

ny state land · « **Reply #37 on:** April 01, 2015, 08:17:00 PM »

Yes I did what you said and started the taper a little later to grab a couple of pounds. Could be it but it shoots very quick!

Nice looking bow and it sounds like it's a real shooter. Good job!
