Title: couple new curves
Post by: bigbob2 on July 27, 2015, 04:23:00 AM
Recently finished these two 'curves , Jim Thorne designs. Osage /Red box is 55# @ 28'' and Purple heart / Bubinga is 55# @ 28''. shot the P/h one yesterday and happy to say its fast , smooth, and very accurate and certainly doesn't feel like its draw weight even after 55 arrows.  (http://i1382.photobucket.com/albums/ah249/bigbob2/DSCN0426_zpsvbyslvyp.jpg) (http://s1382.photobucket.com/user/bigbob2/media/DSCN0426_zpsvbyslvyp.jpg.html)

"Is the Osage wider by a 1/4?" Actually its only because it was strung and in that shot because of that was closer to camera.thanks Gents too!Except for the garden gnome from PA.   :bigsmyl:    :bigsmyl:    :bigsmyl:

thanks Jay and Soy. Very happy with their performance. the P.H/ Bubinga is actually 58# at 28'' and really feels lighter.
