Amongst other things I would suggest that the bow spec: what it's made of & how its made
& how many arrows & how you shoot it may affect how your bow goes.
Self or laminated?, if latter how many &
What materials?
Length of bow & dimensions?
What draw weight & length tillered to? ....& do you keep to it?
Reputation of bowyer? feedback from bowyer on your observation
On shooting style - I see a lot of
longbow archers doing T-draw, with under-chin & 3 point anchor, long hold, before loose.
Was the bow intended to be shot this way?
Was if offered as a target/field/general shooting bow or a clout bow?
Do you shoot clout with a "slashing" loose - was it made for this?
Friend of mine had a tri-lam made for him last year, not sure of lams, but think it was hickory/purpleheart/lemonwood.
Started taking set from beginning, end up at 3", after say 3 months, & draw weight nowhere near the #65 specified.
Same friend had another made by a different bowyer about 2 months ago, #65, tri-lam, not sure what lams,
developed chrysals in weeks 1-2. Pending bowyer inspection & response.
I know Del's a bowyer & may be able to comment on the reported current shortage of good quality bow making wood / laminations
especially e.g. lemonwood.
Current bow i'm shooting : boo/boo/ipe #55@28" has about 1" of set after shooting tonight, not sure if it drops after it's rested though,
never checked it as it looks & shoots pretty much the same since I've had it.
