Hi Gang. I really need someone to clear this up for me...
I shoot a Black Widow Longbow. It is cut to center but not past. With a strike plate on it/ or velcro rest, it seems to measure 1/8 out from center. Is it or isn't it legal in IBO shoots?
clarity.....sanity? you are on the wrong website for that : )
I think you are legal
not sure it this is the official rules

2) The riser should be cut no closer than 1/8 inch to the outside of the centerline of the bow, however, if a riser is cut less than 1/8 inch to the outside of the centerline of the bow, a pad may be added so that the arrow rests on a surface no closer than 1/8 inch outside the centerline of bow.

:banghead: it's sanity :biglaugh:
Pastor Steve... I guess there is a rule... I'd never heard of it, nor paid any attention. Of course, I don't keep score... ever... at anything, so nobody really cares what i do. If you really want to enjoy shooting, just shoot, one shot at a time, and try to make each shot a perfect experience to be enjoyed. Every now and then, it happens and makes everything worthwhile.
Steve, sent you a PM
