Title: finger pinch>>>string angle>>>>bow design
Post by: kevgsp on June 21, 2009, 11:24:00 PM
With shorter bows and finger pinch, are bowyers or anyone else tested the string angles at a given draw length?  

Is a shorter bow always going to have a smaller string angle, or can the design overcome this to a certain degree?

Shopping shorter LB's 58-60" with a 29" draw is there any real difference.

String angle can be overcome with a design like the asiatic static tip bows. Also you can get rid of finger pinch using a thumbring instead of a 3 finger release.
