That super lam serves a purpose but not like a longer riser. My guess is a actual 22_24 in riser would be better. Think about this with a TD after the wedges how long it is fade to fade. And I think shorter working limbs doing more work better performance.
To a point ya just got to play with it to find out.

So I went ahead and measured the latest curve design I am doing 29 in. Fade to fade and maybe 16 in. Working limb. But I ain't a chrono so I don't know about the fps. Seems quick tho and zero vibes after the shot.
Let it rest Kenny then you get the itch again soon.

Just sign it "Hopeless".  Build another and call it "Faithless".  Terry can auction them off for St Judes.

  I have been shooting regularly for the last 2 months or so...  My recurves are faster but it seems that my R/D makes better groups...  And at 29 " draw I think she is shooting about 194 fps with a 10+ gpp arrow... With such a flat trajectory she shoots close to point on from about 18 to 26 yds... I could not ask for more...  I am not sure why they use recurves in Olympic  shooting and/or how they pull it off being so accurate... I have always heard that longbows are more forgiving... I wonder if one of these Olympic shooters would be willing to try longbow limbs just to see if they could shoot better groups with them...  After all longbows have come a long way... The new R/D bows can now keep up or surpass the performance of some recurves...  Most will definitely surpass Kenny's recurve...  :laughing:

Joking aside... Sorry Kenny, I feel your pain... I been there many, many times...  So if anybody has a right to laugh...  I do...   :)

All them big over sized curved limbs do is slow down the arrow.

Too much dead weight out there not doing a darn thing...

Longbows Rock.......

Anyone can make a recurve...

But r/d longbows take skill and brains....

I really don't think a longbow or a curve groups one better than the other. Accuracy has to do with the operator. Now there may be bows out there that one operates better than the other.
