Default RE: This weeks project, new bow

ORIGINAL: burniegoeasily

Yes, this is a static grip bow. I built a little deflex in the handle so it appears to be bending more in the fades thanmost wouldlike. It was a great shooter. They guy who bought it shot his first trad. deer with it this year. I almost hated to part with it.
What makes it static handled? Is the handle significantly thicker/wider? Probably the best looking longbow I have seen in a while.

If I make one, how do I make sure the handle is static so I don't pop off the handle? Guess why I am asking is, there is no defined fades on the main part of the IPE.

Thanks
