I've found at least one of my custom order bows cut a little differently than some others have posted. I'd suggest measuring centercut yourself if you are going to use the calculator for a starting point; especially custom built non-CNC cut risers. In my opinion, there simply is no substitute for getting your hands on a set of test arrows of various spines and simply picking the one that shoots best for your particular bow and shooting style. YMMV.

Thank you Michael of Legend Bows. I have included yours in the list.

Very good suggestion Dan. Its the way I have done it. The list is a resource not an absolute.

All of mine are -3/16"

Tim I have all your bows at -3/16. But I also have a line for your bows that says you will do different on customer request.

HI this is Nate from Bamabows. I cut my bows + 1/8 to + 3/16 and like the one guy said it's best to check because it's not hard to loose or gain a `1/16

Thank you Nat I have added your bows along with your great advice

Just a reminder to all who use this info., this is without the strike plate that the bowyer or you put on your bow. I think some folks forget this important fact.
Thanks Les and Stu and all the bowyers that helped put this together!

My Martin Savannah and Horne's Brush Bow look more like 1/8 than 0 to me.

The DSC needs to be calibrated w a known good setup to determine the Personal Form Factor (PFF) before best use too. RTFM?

I have good setups (bare shaft/paper tested) that are not even close according to the DSC unless I adjust w a PFF.

Tomahawk original and diamond series are cut to + 1/16". The new 3 piece legacy series is cut to - 1/8". Black Widow's Pl series is cut to center.

I have not contacted the makers to ask if this info is accurate for all their bows, but mine are as follows:

Mohawk Sparrow Hawk 1-piece +3/16
Java Man Elk Heart 2-piece 0
