Title: Re: i know you don't like pic.
Post by: shaft slinger on January 24, 2007, 03:29:00 PM

shoots good, was shooting some carbons and seems to have some hand shock , switched to some raman wood about 600gr and it went away.
  i thank it is fast but will have to cron. it when it get warmer.
  i have reversed one taper( first time for me } don,t if i like it or not, will have to shoot more.
  carbon caster the hook up is throu the back of the riser, don,t know if that is what you were asking, i have never seen a shawnee

Yep, that is the way a Shawnee is made.  Look at Bob Morrison's site and you can see pics.

I really like it.

Harold, I have one of your LBs. It is pretty quick and does have a little handshock with my light carbons, but put some 550 grain woodies thru it and it is gone. Ya make a nice bow. Shawn

WOW!!  great looking combo!

CC is talking about the use of a "T" bolt with female thread on the limb side, with a bolt on the riser side coming into the "T" bolt instead of the usual. Sure takes some forethought, great bow! Did you buy the hardware or make it?
