Homemade lams bow done! performance report !

[kennym]

Thanks all,forgot to mention in the specs,those are veneers that my bro and I ground,our 1st attempt. Takes a 1x2-5' to make a bow. This bow only has 2 lams like a recurve with a short power lam over the riser. Any thoughts about how it'll hold up?

OK,took her over to my neighbors chrono along with my 60", 53# @ 28" MOAB

My new bow is 64", 52# @28"

These were not measured draws,but had 3 guys shoot thru and averaged.

These bows shot within 1 fps of each other overall

525grn arra- 181 fps
702grn arra 160 fps

The 64" bow might have been very slightly quieter,not enough to be sure.

On a side note,last winter with a measured 28" draw,the MOAB shot the 525 grn arra 184 fps

Remember this was no kind of accurate test,just an impromptu session!!

Nice work Kenny,a real looker and has some good speed to boot.

That looks like a real sweety Kenny.  I bet she will hunt real good too.  Nice work!

Wow a good looking bow. That is good speed to.
