second horn bow
Hello,
Last week I finished my 2 horn bow. I wanted to be 65 lbs but it turned out to be 33 lbs. I used the formula from adam's book. My firts bow was les in thicknes and les wide than this one. There is 3 sinew layers on the 2 one.
It only had cured for 9 weeks before It I tride it. Can it be that the bow will get stronger in time??
Regard,

I wish I could answer your question. I'm just in the process balancing and stringing a bow made to Adam's suggestions. I suspect that the sinew on your bow will continue to dry for several weeks yet and some draw weight gained.
