Steve its a #45 a 28 but I have a 31" draw..lol so not too sure.... lol.

I have 32" arrows, and at full draw I have just got the pile in front of it.. so think it may be a bit more when I use it...

Stu I reckon you would be drawing close to 50Lb

Love the bath
I remember on tv a couple of years ago some sort of hippy holiday village, totally off grid, and it had an outside hot tub heated by fire.

Ok Stu, just wondering as Richard's bow was 46 lbs at 28in and was hitting hard and very fast compared.

 

[ozzy1977]

Steve what bow was Richard using yesterday, it was rather nice it did pack quite a punch for a 46lb bow

 

[Cromm]

It's an Andy Soar bow, the guy makes a very nice bow. Lots of the top guys and gals use his bows. Look like an AFB but shoots like a recurve bow.

 

[ozzy1977]

Blackbrook bows, just found them

 

[Big Stu 12]

i think i need a better one

 

[ozzy1977]

The blackbrook afb's start at £450 before you add on fancy options

 

[Cromm]

Yeah that's his bows, Richard's was made for him to his spec.
Stu I know you can pull to 31in but for most of the shoot you had 4 or 5in of arrow out the front of your bow when drawing up I think?
What kind of leather do you have on order?

 

[crosslandkelly]

Just had to walk back from the MOT centre, the Mitsu failed on the anti roll bar bushes. Not a big job, so I left it with them to replace the bushes.

 

[ozzy1977]

That's a bugger mate, will it be sorted for the weekend?

 

[crosslandkelly]

Hopefully it'll be sorted today.
