stack and its definition

what is stack? we can't agree. how do you define it. Well... here is a discussion starter. DFCs don't lie

[@carminecoppola8209]

The details you explain in this video about stack has me finally understanding what the hell it is! I started building bows, just learning by trial and error (practically all errors at this point), but without understanding how it works, I can't hope to get better

I always understood stack to be the increase in "average" draw weight gain as a result of inadequate leverage due to string angle.

I am really enjoying these videos you're doing, thanks Sid.

Thanks for the video Sid! Stack is the reason i went to shoot Border bows! Because with a draw length of about 30,5”-31” i feel a lot of stack in a lot of bows for a very long part of my draw😅

Btw. I wanted to see the subtitles handle "preposterous" with a scotish accent

Good way of putting it, in being unable to subjectively compare stack, when it's all relative. When I compared a certain French, previous generation, entry-level limb (you'll be able to guess which) to your CV2-Hs, where your limbs felt incredibly smooth relative to what I shoot normally. Not a fair comparison by any means but gives context to that

It is a real treat to access your vast technical knowledge regarding these topics. Hope to se more soon

I think target archers who want a wall just don't know how to use a clicker properly. Theres a popular misconception that clickers are supposed to be hard to pull through otherwise you're not properly expanding or engaging the muscles which is a load of rubish. Obviously drawing the bow a few millimeters should not require a great feat of strength

very clear and informative video

Let me see if I can ask this from an archer's point of view because I having a hard time understanding how to make a bow fit an archer with very short or very long draw lengths--I have a 30" AMO draw length and my wife has a 24" one. This is what I understand: limb draw weight, regardless if they are short, medium, or long, seem to have the same rated weight for a 28" AMO draw length. If the riser length changes 2" in length, draw weight change 2#. If I have a 25" riser with short, medium, and long limbs, how does the draw force curve change outside the 28"? If I have three 68" bows, one with a 23" riser and long limbs, a 25" riser with medium limbs, and a 27" riser with short limbs, is the DFC same? I guess I have been trying to understand how to think of riser length and limb length in term of an archer with a short/long draw. How should an archer think about riser and limb choices when they don't have a 28" draw? (This is probably an easy question that everyone knows, but this has been tricky for us.)

[@BorderArcheryLTD]

Extra short limbs and a long limb.and ask for the poundage at 24 or at 30. On the respective riser.

My Hex6.5 is the smoothest limb I have ever shot ;)

Thats kinda where we start now
