Roy, it’s actually higher poundage than I usually shoot by a bit.

No sweat man. Unless you do some radical limb designs those longbows won't perform with a recurve. The ones I build kinda look like yours and they are really sweet to shoot. If you want a longbow to shoot with a recurve you have to put se serious limb design and curves in it and for me that's not really a longbow lol but to each their own. I like shooting bows regardless of what the populace calls them

I checked that out before I posted Kenny and it didn’t look like I was gonna give anything away, I’ve seen you have to watch ol Roy.

I like the strung profile of the bow I built and it seems smooth to my draw length so I’m not gonna mess with it anymore

Is that a new semi takedown system you’re using?
I like the riser. 👍🏻
I just finished making a taper jig for my sander.

I’ll give it a run later today or tomorrow.

Mike, If you flip the limb on the right over you might pick up a couple FPS!
