Need advice on bow
I decided to order a checkmate bow but am lost on what woods to order. I live in a hot humid environment. These are the choices for riser,
Hard Maple, Black walnut, Imbuya, Bubinga, Purple heart, Sheduya Limb choices- Hard Maple, Black walnut, Black locust, red elm Also would like to know about tillering, (split finger or 3 under) Which string material Dacron, dynaflight'97 or 450+ I also shoot a regular compound at 28" draw . How much will that change? |
RE: Need advice on bow
I know vary little about wood types and how the act in different climats, I just went with what I thought looked good. I shoot split fingure because that is how i have shot bows my hole life (compouns to) and from what I have seen alot of guys shoot that way to. For the most part people lose an inch or two when they switch from a compound to a long bow.
Be sure to post some pics if ya can. |

Choose the wood that you like. they will do fine, and the bows have a very nice finish on them.
Nowmy daughters bow has Walnut and Bubinga riser and red elm limbs. If I order one for myself, it will have walnut limbs. |
RE: Need advice on bow

That's the combo I have on my Raven- very nice! My Thunderbird has the same woods, but it's still in transit. I'll post pics when it arrives.
