Today a freshly made selfbow (No 18) had to prove what she can do. The 10gpp test showed a 181fps. The 6gpp test showed a wicked 217 fps. Always cool when a selfbow does more than 180 fps (-;
This test shows that a well made selfbow will outshoot a fiberglass bow of similar design with ease – even if a bow like that will probably loose around 5% of its original cast over a longer time.
