Profiled tonite, came in a bit light, maybe, if I'm getting it all the way back with the scale in hand! Showed 59@ 28 so may be 58@ 30 by the time it's done.

It should fling a heavy arrow tho!! LOL

BTW Dan, did we talk tiller? Even, positive, negative , let me know!

I shoot spit finger, so I believe I would want positive tiller? 58lbs will be great.

No worries. My “real” job seems to get in the way of everything.

You will need a 57" actual measure string after you glue the tip overlays on... Let us know how you like her!!
