Black widow PSA, PCH.... shelf width?
« on: February 12, 2011, 09:06:00 PM »
What is the shelf width from face or riser to edge on the BW TD recurves?  I like a narrower shelf like that.  I have had a couple and keep forgetting to measure one of them.  BW’s seem to be the only recurve I shoot well without any shelf edge contact issues.  I think it is the narrow shelf.

If I understand you correctly, I think this is what you are looking for? Glen

PCH = 1/2"

PSA = 9/16"

Yaa they got a great shelf.Thier not all the same though.I have had some that were narrower than others.Some are relieved or beveled more than others on that outside edge as well.

Narrower shelf with the beveled edge on the outside of the shelf is very good for fletch clearance no doubt.

I dont have a widow to measure currantly.But the last 2 I had had different shelf geometrys.A PA 111 and PTFX.

That sounds about right.  I was guessing around 1/2" from memory, but was not sure.  Thanks  :thumbsup:
