Thanks Art.  I wrote what I was trying to say wrong, and do understand the string follow and set difference.  Yes I do plan to put some reflex in the limbs, but had not thought about slightly deflexing the handle area.  Hey Roy, there is a bunch of us 'ole timers" in VA too.  Who said water allways runs down stream...it somehow got from Wva to Va.....  :dunno:

Lots of things that you can toy with Charles. But nothing smoother than a good long bow of the length you're after......Art

That's all I want Art.  You summed it up perfect.   " A good long bow of the length I want"

LOL Art.
I'm heading to the bow shop now. I'm gonna glue up two limbs in my takedown limb form using the fire hose for compression. Osage on the back, boo in the middle and osage on the belly. All are 1/8th thick. Then I'll glue them onto a riser and add an overlay to the back to cover up the ends of the limbs at the riser. Wish me luck ole timer:)
