Bow number ALB 155 Ipê backed with bamboo. Beech grip. Buffalo horn nocks. Oiled finish 69¾” between nocks, 38 lb at 28” draw, 43 lb at 30” draw, tillered to 30” £150 plus £20 p&p
How it bends	Close-ups	Draw curve Arrow speeds with 28” draw 400 grain 156 fps 500 grain 144 fps Arrow speeds with 30” draw 400 grain 170 fps 500 grain 157 fps
Notes: If you look closely at the right hand close-up, just to the right of the top of the grip, you can just make out a dark mark. This is an old compression fracture that formed when the bow was much heavier than it is now. I've reduced the weight by taking away more wood, but left the grip as it was. So it shouldn't give any more trouble. This fault qualifies for an extended warranty.
