Title: recurve plans.
Post by: bigbob2 on August 10, 2014, 05:38:00 AM

Looking for some plans other than Binghams that I can play with , ideally a take down with about a 19''- 21'' riser and a one piece of the same riser size.I have made the 60'' forward riser from Binghams which came out very nice, but would like  to try some thing else. Sent couple emails to Build your own bow site but never had any response.

I like that asymmetric design Roy, but it's not a takedown. It certainly looks fast though.    :D
