There is a newer version somewhere but I don't know where.

Bro came over to shoot it yesterday. First shot , he said “ man that shoots em hard, they really hit the target hard. “

He liked it a lot but was wanting to know if I could put the extra palm swell on like our hunting bows.... just the grip he likes .
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Nice Kenny - I like that style of bow.  I have a design similar, but I think yours is a bit more forward in the handle.  They will zip an arrow.

OK, did the DFC to best I could . Put her on the shooting machine clamped to bench so I could pull steady. Had a marked arrow in inches, clothespin on front to draw til it touched back of bow.

Last couple I had to put a fender washer behind point for a stop as the arrow was only 31" , then found a 32" one and did the same.

Would have been better if I'd had a lovely assistant to watch the marks maybe, but here is what I got.

You tell me if it's good, I've never worried about DFC , only NSQ ....

Nice, smooth,quiet LOL


 


So it appears no stacking to 32" at least , correct?
Stay sharp, Kenny.

That looks great! Love to make one. Haven't built a bow in a while but this FDC makes me want to get back in it. Thanks, Kenny.

Those are great numbers on speed and the DFC.

A very good design.

I like the looks of that one Kenny.  How long is your riser?  It looks like a pretty tight radius on the front of the riser.  Any trouble getting the lam to bend in the form?

I snapped a quick picture of one of mine - similar shape at brace - you definitely have a more forward handle.
