Turksh Bow after 3rd sinew

I think, bending section is too close to the handle.
I am not a specialist, and my remarks and might be wrong.

Hallo Ingmar,
I think it was time for pretzel shape, but good that you were attentful because of this ''deformation'' you described. I do not think that bending section looks a bit close to handle but in fact you will correct it during tillering (if it is really bends more close to handle). Also, i do not understand this deformation under right kasan, maybe to add a bit sinew but i think that more experienced bowyers will give you good advice.It can be corrected during tillering later. Good thing is that nothing delaminated:-)))))
Best regards,
Zoran
p.s. Thank you very much for pair of w.buffalo hornstrips. One of best Christmas gifts i ever get:-) God zegen je!

Depending on the reason for the extreme reflex close to the handle, I would be conserned. If the limbs was glued at an angle to the grip it ought not be a problem. But if the limbs was glued straight to the grip and all the reflex is a result of pull from the sinew, it could mean that the core and horn might be too thin close to the grip, resulting in too much bend there, once you start to bend it. I think the main trouble with such highly reflexed parts is that the horn might delaminate from the core.

I'm not sure what the deformation below the kasan should be? Perhaps a little more reflex could be added to the sal towards the kasan eye?

I like it! Good luck with waiting for it to cure, and fingers crossed for you when it is going to be opened up :)

The high reflex near the grip is the result I think of to thin core at the grip,not smooth enough
as Fransisco and others said.
I will let it be and we will see in 6 months what the bow will do; when I open it.
Thanks for replying; Zoran ,Kviljo and Traianj

Ingmar,
Can you wrap the sinew to secure this part of possible delamination? Does anyone has idea? Wish you good luck Ingmar:)

The tips were also not pulled down to the grip which would also accentuate the eye. Maybe a little extra sinew is called for at the fades? Later the upper limbs and siyahs can also be lightened. If it does not break it should be a fast shooter.

A complete #50 bow is better than a broken #70.

Thank you Jack.
It s an advice I will do in a few days,more sinew at the fades.
Have a beautifull newyears evening.
