shawn unfortunately i don't know. this is only the second bow that i have built. it is on a much smaller scale than the first bow i built. but on the other hand i am working on another bow that is full sized that will be glued up the same as this one.so hopefully i will be able to help more after i get it going.
     by the way worked on the bow a little more tonight. strung it up but didn't have my camera so no pics   "[dntthnk]"   but ill put post some more tomorrow. i drew it back almost full draw on me which is about 28in with no problems. for the younger kids it is intended for it should be perfect. the draw weight is not bad it will be interesting to see what it finishes out at.
until tomorrow.

finally got some more pics together. first we have a strung profile  next is the unstrung   and finally we have it at full draw this bow was not intended for an adult to shoot but its nice to know that i could. and if its heavy enough it might have to make a trip to black beard island. it would come in real handy in those palmettos. forgot to mention that it is only 50in ntn. maybe one day soon i'll finish it. more pics to come.
