moved to bowyers bench
« on: March 27, 2012, 11:40:00 AM »
Here is my question for you experts, or knowledgeable novices.  If a bow is tillered for a specific draw length say 28 and is drawn at a shorter draw weight will it decrease the efficiency of the limb?  I know it will lower the draw weight, so my question really is would it make the limb less efficient if the same limb (core, lams etc.) had been tillered for the final weight at that draw length.  So tillered for 55 at 28" draws 50# at 26" say.  Would the same limb tillered for 50# at 26" be more efficient?
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

You should pose this question in the Boyer's Bench forum below Pow Wow.  That's where the expert bowmakers and efficency testers spend their time.
