Title: first glass bow came out a little light???
Post by: perry f. on February 25, 2011, 08:48:00 PM
I just finished my first glass bow and it came out a little lighter draw weight than I wanted. Just wondered if there was a way to make it pull more. It's a 66" long R/D design. Thought about making it a 64", how much weight can I expect to pick up by doing that? Thanks!
