Angle of ears
[external image]
I have this and don't know for sure what ears to use.
What would be best the left or right side?
It's 50" t/t, handle 7", 4" splice and ears 5" at 50-55 degree.

For a 50" bow, I would go with the one on the right.

I did leave long ears so I can modify them. I hope the ears are straight with string at brace. My idea was that if I want to push the limbs more together I can do that with an extra curve at end. But that may gives longer draw length then I draw.
The extra recuravture at the tips (as on the left) will not make the bow faster. It may be done if some stacking is expected, but for a longer bow, such as yours, it is not needed.
For a fast bow, it is better to have the bending limbs reflexed, not the rigid tips.
