Well took the bow over to Rod's shed today and he put it on the scales and she's only 42lb so will be discarded to the target bow dump corner of the room I guess. (only joking) So the specs ended up 64'' 42lb@28, 10lb lighter then I was going for as I was chasing a hunting bow. Maybe another year before I try another one or maybe even a new set of limbs a little heavier for it. On the bright side she's still a pleasure to shoot pretty smooth and strait, I will knock up a set of arrows more to the poundage as I have been shooting 520 grns out of her will be interesting to see how she shoots with the lighter shafts. Will get the crono out when the new shafts are done to let you all know how quick she is.
One day I look forward to getting it all right and it will all come together but for now I am still enjoying the journey.

Cheers Wayno

Thanks A.K you should of picked up on the riser lines, bet that quiver brings a few memories back for you. Mark K was a big help when I started out building number 4 would love to sit down and build a bow with him, to much knowledge to pass over the phone but he was a big help. Stay safe my friend.

Cheers Wayno

Yeh Mark sure have made some bows and his work is second to none and if not better then some of the well known bows that come out of the U.S.

Thought that quiver looked familiar :lol:

Really starting to get to know the new bow now. Just knocked up a decent D97 string for her and went out to the target bunt to brake it in. Have only shot woods out of her so far and the groups from about 15 mtrs, although I did have a few warm up shots. But you gotta be happy with that.

Cheers Wayno
