Incredible new bow for 2019

[Traildust]

ok i will give it my best

lets say Bob can pull 50lbs due to his close resemblance to Arnold Schwarzenegger

but he has T-Rex arms... and only a 25" draw

His friend Bertha is a bit healthier and has longer arms but only wants to shoot the same draw weight as her friend, her draw length is 28".

they both go and buy the exact same bow model.

Which of them has a more powerful bow?
which bow will shoot the arrow at a higher KE?
50lbs and 25" draw ?
50lbs and 28" draw?

what is so mystifying about that

What's " more powerful mean"? Arrow speed?

I think you have the words confused

Mystical synonym -magical, transcendent
Mystifying synonym -baffling, mysterious

Never heard anybody use power when describing a bow’s performance like you have here. I was just looking for what you meant. I was hoping it wasn’t “knockdown” power.[emoji23]

Speed, kinetic energy, momentum, poundage are words I am used too.

I got it now! Shortening the DL, brace, string length while rotating the cams to their most efficient setting. Cool mini-frankinbow.

Do you have any issues with tuning these? or maybe not you per say, but the shooters. Does the slightest hand torque do much?
I am guess you have the shooters shoot with a bent bow arm as opposed to "strong bow arm." For avoiding string slap?

Just curious about it. I think it is really cool what you have done.

as to tuning and torque
the bow tunes pretty much exactly as before nothing new or complicated.

because i didn't move the grip or limb pockets the torque sensitive parts of the bow are the same. so the bow to me seems to "feel" the same. my daughter from the age of 9-10 was shooting well even out to 50 yards. her errors at long range were equal to her errors at 10 (magnified of course) but the same.

i do my self shoot slightly bent arm and thats what i teach as well. its how i learned to shoot target in college. but with the string stop i can't emphasize enough that the string doesn't seem to ever be an issue. the day i shot an assembled bow and forgot the stop in a hurry to go shot it is the day i cried, yes a grown man can cry

it means only more KE and more momentum

I sure as heck did answer the last one. read it again.

Well there you go..[emoji1303]

the question was which bow has more power

2 to choose from
A or B etc

and if you pick one... explain why you picked it

Like I said I have never heard power used when describing a bows performance. I thought you were just using those first questions as rhetorical support.

If you’d have used, IBO, speed, KE, momentum etc in the first place, I wouldn’t have even posted.

my mistake, i am also always learning better ways to communicate and thus i fail epicly allllll the time.... just ask my ever embarrassed wife. who has some of the strongest eye rolling muscles you have ever seen. shes a looker too

My mind is doing loops..........

You are shortening the limbs, which causes the bow to do what exactly? Shoot faster? Increase/decrease draw weight?

[steve morton]

I'd like the idea of modification being done on my old bowtech Tomcat.
It's b/h is superlong.
30 draw, 70# limbs
A shorter d/l with lower# sounds good to me.

it means that if i set the bow up for say Jr Joe and he can pull 35lbs and is a 23" draw, i can effectively give him a 35lb bow that he still is only pulling 23" draw but his power stroke or the amount of inches that the arrow travels still attached to the string is now 3.5" longer. so the effect is that Jr Joe is now shooting a bow that has the same output as a 35lb 26.5" draw bow of the same make (cam system).

Ok, Ok! Now I am seeing what is going on here!

Thank you for explaining.
