Been wanting to do this for awhile and since I took my first deer with a recurve this season I want to work towards my new goal of taking a deer with a selfbow, self made arrow and knapped broadhead.
With that said, I am following along with Poor Folk Bows (
www.poorfolkbows.com) instructions. I have a question for all you self builders.
I have a very good piece of red oak and the center of the bow lines up pretty close with the center of the tips...however I just want to make sure I am doing this correctly. I used a string with weights on each end down the legth of the bow running through the center of it. I used the string to adjust the center of the tips to make both tips line up with the center of the bow. My question is after I mark the tips do I use a straight edge to make a mark from one tip to the center and then the same on the opposite limb or one line at one time through all three points?
