Arrow (Shelf) Paradox

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

There's plenty of debate about arrow shelves and how deep to cut them - if at all... Arrows are going to flex upon being shot - this phenomenon happens no matter what kind of shelf you put on your bow including "center shot." there are, however, a few very important aspects to consider when you carve out your arrow rest no matter how deep you decide to cut it. I'll show you how I cut in my arrow rests and why the depth of the rest isn't as important as you may think.

    I agree we should try to say, "belly-side of handle or shelf". 🙂 Wholeheartedly agree with your points re importance of working down belly-side of handle. And, yes, that importance is rarely mentioned in bow-building vids or discussions. And it bears repeating that the area in need of narrowing is usually relatively small area right at where arrow shaft would otherwise be in contact with belly-side of shelf and, to lesser degree, back side. Failing to do that can negatively impact arrow flight. Thanks for reminder re from what side to work bamboo edge.

    There has been so many posts on your Facebook group about shelves on bows, that were driving me crazy - thinking to myself, you have to narrow out the belly side or you’ll never get any kind of desirable results - that I felt I had to make this video to explain it. Thank you again for all of your support of the channel and for your valuable input.

    Thank you very much for the details you comment in this video. It is something I´ve put a lot of mind on but I didn´t have any security in my thoughts. It is the first time I find information about that matter and that is great. I like to make selfbows and will adapt this idea to the las one I have finish these days. Your videos are excellent.

    Great video my friend. Thanks for putting out your stuff. I agree with you, I mainly build self bows and determining the string center can be difficult if not impossible on some snaky bows. Sometimes I guess wrong, and I can always tell by the slapping of the arrow or string slap of my forearm.... Great content, look forward to see it shoot!!

    Thanks for the video and tips on narrowing the belly side! I clicked the link and ordered the 4 in 1 rasp but received a sharpening rod. Other reviews mentioned the same thing. The seller probably put the wrong bar code on an entire batch. The sharpening rod actually looks nice and I'm keeping it. Just a heads-up.

    At the moment the string is loosed, your arrow no longer is in contact with the arrow pass. As soon as the energy from the limbs is transferred into that arrow, the arrow deflects. The only place it's touching any part of the bow is the rest. That sound of the arrow hitting the bow isn't because of lack of contours. It's due to arrow spine or knocking point. If an arrow isn't spined correctly for that particular bow, it will bend back in the opposite direction it started bending upon release before it normally should and smack the bow on its way out. Or if nocked too high or low. Record yourself in slow motion shooting various spine weights and you'll see what I'm talking about. The amount of words and claims you fabricate on this channel is bonkers. As they say these days "shotty Joddy strikes again"

    Arrow spine is a completely different subject and one that will never be solved without a proper arrow pass on the bow itself… that having been said, I think it’s awesome that I have gained a reputation in infamy… thank you for watching!!!
