. I've been so

fast

and thinking about speed, how fast can we shoot a bow? Speed ​​isn't everything, but it's nothing. Speed ​​is something when shooting a bow and today we're going to shoot a bow and see how fast we can make one of these EEPs. bamboo back archery I think you are going to like it so let's get straight to the construction of the bow now, most people prefer a comfort draw bow to a quick draw bow and that is because if you have a quick draw bow but you can't hit your target, what's the point, but on the other end, as a bow maker, if I can make a comfortable draw bow and find a good design or some shape or some kind of material to make it faster but still, shooting smoothly now that we got the bonus, so that's what we're looking for.

I'm not going to look for the fastest bow in the world right now. I'm using a D flex

reflex

style bow so it's comfortable to shoot at the same time. I want to do it fast, so how do we do it right by combining these two amazing materials together? This will help a lot because bamboos are great in the back of the boat. They pay so hard and are so dense that they are great in the belly of the boat. Add to that I'm going to make the limbs very skinny and skinny to try to cut through the air as quickly as possible.

I'm also going to increase the weight a little to make a 60 pound bow instead of a 40 or 45 pound bow that I normally shoot, but I know the relative velocities if you're using different arrow weights, so I'm going to try this with a variety of different arrow weights so you can see exactly how many grains per pound this bow shoots and, really, if you don't already know. I'm selling them like this so you can finish the boat. I have one. I have these right here. They are incredible. If you want to partner with me to make a super fast bow, you can pick these up. on my website and I make it customizable for you so you can make an eBay handle like this or you can make a maple laminate eBay handle that looks nice and you can also decide if you want me to stick it here or No, I do same with the tip overlays, we have IPE and we also have laminated maple.

You can customize all of this on our website. You can choose the exact length of the bow. I'll glue it all together for you if you want. or you can buy it just like that if you're looking for a cheaper option and have the handle and tip overlapping, so I thought I'd let you know that Creme Ram is quiet. Link below for these amazing and super fast ones. days I would love to partner with you and make a bow, people have already been buying them even though I haven't announced it yet, so you'll want to place that order quickly without having to wait a long time to get it. your bow, but for today's bow we need to get out of the heat box, we need to shape it, we need to adapt it so we can see how fast this bowl, oh, shoot, so this Bo is a little weaker than what I planned.

I plan on a 60 pounder. I ended up at 55 that's fine, that's what it looks like on my drawing. I can almost hold it comfortably. I'm a little shaky. I haven't practiced with heavy bows yet, but I really like it. Go shoot. Alright, a number one tip for 200 feet per second. Alright, wait a second because I need to tell you how this arrow fared, because the weight of the arrow does matter enormously when it comes to speed, so this arrow is 352 grains and I had a 55 pound boat, this equals 6 .41 grains per pound, so it's a pretty light arrow as far as hunting and target practice goes, this is normal, perfectly fine, you know, and the other thing is when you first shoot a bow that you've done.
If you've ever done one before, it's a little stressful, like you pull back and even though you've drawn it on the rudder input further than what you're going to draw here, you pull it back and you're still like 1 a drawing short, so that's what I did, let's do this. I drew it briefly in 199, let's go back there. I'll restart it, let's go 200 feet per second, let's get it - OH - honey, I'm still thinking about it. I can draw it more, how do you see that? Well, we get to 7 to 8. I mean, we'll get a heavier arrow and see how much it slows it down.
Okay, so what I did was I went ahead and grabbed that same arrow. and I put a new arrowhead on it to increase it to 375 grants to see how much less the speed would be with a difference of 25 grains, this brings the grains per pound of extraction up to six point eight in a set. testing the green arrow 375 202 201 200 is fine, but that's not it, let's jump to a much heavier arrow and see how it works. Let's jump up. This arrow is 509 grains, which is nine point two five grains per pound, which is quite a lot, no shooter is going to use it like that, it's probably just a hunting setup, so look how it worked out, we have a new area, This one is just over five hundred grains, let's see if we can hit 200 feet per second. with this set All Right on the first try I was there Oh m/s 181 now remember all these tests were done with a D

reflex

flex bow and it was a long bow.
I could have shortened the arc and it will be even faster. It could make the tips move more or recurve more, which will make the bow faster. I could probably get away with even thinner limb tips. You could even make the tips of the limbs more static so there is more curvature in the middle. There are so many different things you could do. to make a faster bow, but for this test I want to see if I can get over 200 with a comfortable shooting bow. Now, in the future, maybe we'll see if we can max out the bow speed faster, but for now I'm pretty happy with how.
This turned out if you want to make a bow like this. I've done half the work for you. If you don't have a band saw. If you don't have a heat box. If you don't want to spend a lot. money on Bowyer's epoxy and stuff like that, everyone gets all the materials, everyone glues them together so you can shape the handle, you can shape your hit points and you can also adapt your bow, but you did it, you made your own own. It shoots very very very well if you want to start bow
