New Form - Mild R/D

[kennym]

Here is a 58" with the superlam in it Don.

28" draw





29" draw





It actually drew 29.5 before string reached 90* and over 30" before DFC showed signs of stacking.

This little bow has 10 big game kills, including deer , hogs, and bear. All at 38# at his DL  :cool:

This bow has no power lam or tip wedge.  I usually build the first one without either to see what it looks like.  I've used 22"-28" on other designs.  Without a thickness sander, building nice consistent PLs and TWs is a slow process for me. I may need to try a Super Lam if you are offering them Kenny.  Thats a great profile!

Awesome job....I love those mild R/Ds

What I like most about the SL is less stuff to deal with when greased with EA-40! LOL

Could You elaborate how You put them together?

Sorry, saw this question a month ago and forgot to respond.  The accent tips are a very involved process that an old bowyer showed me after swearing an oath of...

Ok, actually they are dirt simple.  Just left over pieces of the riser accent.  I cut them from a piece of scrap when I'm squaring up my riser block after its glued (if its wide enough to shave a 1/8th" off) or use scrap from cutting out the belly fades when I cut the riser shape out of the block.

These had 1/8" phenolic under them.

Great looking bow Glunt.

A short PL may be the trick here, but I wouldnt put in a tip wedge based on the profile seen there. The reflex is enough it seems.
