This bow looks like mine,only mine is slightly bigger.

its hard to tell but i'd say yes.

if you hunt with your bow limit yourself to shots 15 and under. I hunt with a compound and out of my 3 latest kills all have been under 15 yards.

-get good with it

- VERY sharp broadheads, 2 blade are preferred

- your arrow only needs about 5 inches of penetration to get a lung. a single lung shot will kill a deer

You are not getting useless information here.
However there is at least one useless idiot that gave you information.

Fast forward to your next interaction with a Conservation Officer. You have this bow in your hands. You have an Archery Hunting License, everything else about your activities are legal. Prove your bow is of mandatory draw weight.

If you cannot you have a problem.

have you ever seen a DEC guy measure draw weight? NEVERRRRRRRR !

Hunt away.

Yeah sure.
 

Hunt away? Really?!

Easy for you to say I guess. I prefer to limit my losses. Taking chances with the law is not something I entertain anymore.

I think most LEO encounter brand name equipment in the field. This piece is home made. If it even looks marginal he won't test it, he'll charge the guy with something and make him prove it's legal.

I think it's careless to offer flip advice to someone who seems new to the sport. If you want to take chances, you go right ahead. It's your a$$, not mine, nor the OP.

But hey, I always say it: YMMV.

How many times has a dec guy come across a custom made, marginally legal bow in the field?
I wouldn't want to be his first.

If I was the OP I would call dec or similar agency,
Tell them you want to keep it legal, just what he can do in case he gets approached by dec, ask them what they would look for.maybe all he needs is a receipt from a shop indicating its a 35# even if a shop charges for such, may be worth it..
Something I would consider.

That's exactly what I would do because I would want to know exactly what I had made so not only am I not guessing, but I can prove the draw weigth if asked by an Officer out in the field. CYA, as my old First Sergeant use to say!!!

This worries me. What did you have in mind with not hitting the deer in the vitals?

Don't worry guys,i will check draw weight at hunting store.
