Sweet looking bow, looks like it would really sling an arrow.

That's a sweet bow! I have a form that makes a bow alot like that and I think it is a quieter bow than the one that makes a bow that has straight limbs when strung. Do you have a pic of the veneers?

[heartlandbowyer]

I guess I didn't take a picture before I started, they are pictured in z giveaway where Kenny originally posted them. Probably will have some finish on them by next weekend. I'll post finished pics then.

Have you tried that form without the Core-tuff down the center ? Ever use a different taper ? What were the results?

I've seen this (your) bow design in another thread and was very impressed... it's a looker for sure. Looks fast sitting still!

Many thanks for your info on stack, heartlandbowyer. Sorry to take so long to reply, but I have been using up all my free time building me a bandsaw...it is a lot more work than anticipated! My main motivation for building it was to be able to make a one-piece form, and this bow you built will be the model for my first form. Many thanks!

Duane,
It's a pretty new design so I haven't messed with different taper yet, I may try more taper on the next on have been using .002 taper up till now. I have used core tuff and it doesn't hurt performance that i can see. I'm getting between 178 and 186 fps on average with 10gpp arrows with this design. I may try messing with stack, taper, and materials to see if I can get a bit more out of it. Oh yeah they shoot pretty darn well too.
