    Both seem to be great shooters. Maybe it's just me but the darker one sounds like it's a bit slower

    • @peterjuulsgaard
      @peterjuulsgaard  Рік тому

      Probably yes, as the darker one has a little string follow and the lighter one has a lttle back set

    Glad you didn’t do an arrow shelf. It’s really ugly with a shelf. If you want to reduce the handshock, reduce the width of the last inches of the bow, you still have margin. Nice bow, congratulations

    Is last years bow type called a working handle /bend thru handle? Hand shock has to due with too light an arrow, heavy tips, poor tiller, low brace height, or HAVING A RISER THAT IS TOO SMALL COMPARED TO THE LIMBS. Shorter bows seem to have more hand shock. That's what I got from a quick web search. So maybe play with arrow weight and brace height and recheck/perfect the tiller. Perhaps you could reduce the tip weight by making them less wide? I would be interested in a video of a step by step series of changes to see if you can improve the hand shock and what that does to arrow speed/accuracy/ draw weight etc. Always enjoy your content Peter.

      Maybe I should try that one day. I’ll not say that there is too much handshock on the “old” bow. There is just less in the “new” bow. Thanks for watching

    Well crafted!
    I think the new One has a kind of whip tiller, maybe...and so lese mass to move?
    But with heavy arrows ?Is there a problem with handshock?
    And i'm mpressed too👍👍👍🙇‍♂️😎

      This arrow weighs 490 grain and the bow is around 40 pounds. It shoots a 10 gpp arrow 150 fps at 27” of draw

    Hi, Peter. BOTH these self bows look very nice to me, and you're certainly shooting well with them. You didn't mention anything about differences in how they "feel" but are there some? Do you have a preference between the two bows?
    Finally, since I THINK you said here that the roebuck season is open, wouldn't the logical third video in this series be shooting a nice buck with one of the two self-bows? I would certainly like to see that, and I'm SURE that I'm not alone among your followers. All the best, Chris (Maine, USA)

    • @peterjuulsgaard

      I would surtainly like to do that my self. But these bows dont come near the energy that are required for hunting here. Shooting a roedeer here, requires the same as you reccomend for ELK, not kidding. You would probably need minimum a firehardened White wood bow at atleast 57-60 pounds to meet the requirement. So thats the main reason I’m using the mordern recurves and longbows. BTW the newest of the two bows are the better shooter, no doubt. Thanks for watching

      @@peterjuulsgaard Thanks so much for the quick yet thorough explanation. It sounds as if, as so often happens here in the States, government regulations make no sense.
      That said, most states-including Maine-have reasonable poundage minimums. I use a 45-lb. takedown recurve to hunt white-tailed deer that average 110 lbs. to 180 lbs. I think that my bow is 10 lbs. above the minimum, but I KNOW that it'll do the job if I don't shoot at deer more than 25 yards away, if I correctly place my shot, AND if I use high-quality, really sharp fixed-blade broadheads on arrows totaling close to 600 grains in weight.

    Longer bow may shoot better simply because it's longer. Tips on it definitely could be narrowed. Bit of string follow is to be expected from a self bow. It appears the amount you have is not excessive at all, in fact it's good. Is wood hickory for both bows? Shooting at 32 yds distance . . . you are sooo accurate with both bows.

      I think he said 13 meters, or 14 yards. He took 17 steps from the target to his shooting position. Still, with a selfbow that is darn good shooting.

    Nice bow peter I would be proud to own it. I just picked up a red oak board from the hardware store to try my first board bow. ( Took me an hour to find one with straight grain). I have 3 Osage staves in my garage that are intimidating to look at I'm scared I will mess them up. Keep up the good work man
