Title: First shots out of BW PTF
Post by: Three Arrows on August 19, 2009, 07:42:00 PM

I was sitting around moping about a bow I sold but cannot ship due to high shipping costs overseas when the UPS man came. He usually comes around 2:00pm. Today, he came at 6:15pm. I strung up the bow and took a couple shots with CX 350's at 31inches and 250grains up front. I also fooled with some cedars spined 80-85 cut at 31 with 190grains up front. The first shots hit 8 inches low with the cedars showing weak spine. I tweaked the brace up to 9 inches and got rid of the spider looking things in favor of some Hush Puppies. The groups were okay at 18,22, and 26 yards. I can hold this bow all day long at 54lbs at 28 inch. I don't really know what it comes out to at my 30 inch draw length, but it feels like a kid's bow! I do like the curly bubinga... What do you fellas think?

Besides, the noise is less than that of most recurves I have shot. Once the wool got put on the string, it got quieter.

Very pretty bow.. I've always liked them.. I also suspect that your arrows are over spined..
