I am so jealous of your CNC setup. Nice application of CAD design with bow building. I never thought about that, it’s a game changer. Solidworks is my preferred CAD program for designing for my 3D printers. I wouldn’t use it to model a bow although…or maybe I would? What CAD software do you use for your bow designs? Awesome video, I subbed, looking forward to more videos.
Nice bow but that’s way out of my league brother, I’m still using an axe, a draw knife and card scrapers. My end result isn’t near as nice though, keep up the good work.
I have a backset HH Cheetah and it's a great bow. All the guff about backset asls being harsh in the hand is just that. I'll happily trade the supposed harshness for the extra zip.
It is an asymmetric design with the upper limb longer than the lower. It is a more complicated design but when done correctly, it allows more energy transfer to the arrow
A cut to center shelf opens up your window of tune, making it more forgiving. Let's take for example you don't fully expand your draw when you're in a tree stand in late December and it's 5° and you're wearing a bunch of extra layers. That cut to center riser is going to be much more forgiving of that short draw , still giving you good straight arrow flight and impacting where you want to. Now you take the same situation with a sight window that is cut well outside center, and your short draw at least impacts to the left but also may have the back of the arrow slam off the back of the riser, robbing it of a lot of energy, significantly decreasing penetration. Both bows can be tuned to a perfect tune, but when you have a form flaw or something isn't perfect, the center cut shelf/sight window will always be more forgiving
I'm assuming you are referring to a reverse handle ASL? If so, I have a model called the Northern Styk, which is a reverse handle. However it is a string follow, not a backset. I do not build a reverse handle with backset
That bow takes everything that makes an ASL and throws it out the window. It may be a nice bow, but it is NOT a properly built ASL. Heavy mass weight, cut to center risers......that's not really what an ASL is about. No thanks.
Very nice sounds like it’s a great shooting bow 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼.
🙏🏼
Beautiful bow, dream to shoot one of your creations one day

Doing it the old way...would like a machine
Where did you get the CNC Machine...I'm a Machinist.. usually metal
Nice bow but that’s way out of my league brother, I’m still using an axe, a draw knife and card scrapers. My end result isn’t near as nice though, keep up the good work.
Very cool. That force curve is unreal
Mmmm yup, want that. 😂
A bow will usually go about 5% an inch.. so a 40 lb bow be around 2 lbs an inch, 60 lb will be 3 lb an inch.. (at 28 inch)
Not a bad looking bow. Reflex profile looks like every other reflexed ASL. What speed does it chrony at at 10gpp and 28"?
Looks a little like an Emu
@@kanyinak doesn't have a unique reflex profile like an Emu.
He is saying wonderful words but gives no numbers. Wonderful words are adjectives, and numbers prove the story. Where are the numbers???

Talk to Dylan about the high speed. All the zip with zero harshness 😉
@outlawbowsandoffgridally yeah Colin, I am in the queue for a Emu high speed mate.
Is the center of the bow in the center of the handle or above center making the lower limb a bit shorter?
It is an asymmetric design with the upper limb longer than the lower. It is a more complicated design but when done correctly, it allows more energy transfer to the arrow
So how is a cut to center shelf make the bow more tunable? Because it can be built out a little for adjustment?

My middle name is form flaw 😂. Thanks for the response!
So, a cut to center, string follow, reverse handle bow would be the most forgiving combination in an ASL?
@@robertemerson5933 in general that would be a good assumption for most people. It has the qualities that would equate to that
Sold
Is the reverse grip an option?

How hard on the elbow is it.. hand shock wise.
When you get it tuned, you can get to where there is none.

More for me!
Ok then move along
Thats what he likes to build. Let him be
So you rather a slow hand shocky bow designed in the 1930s? This bow has all the looks and might actually perform half decent.
