The specifications as given to the bowyer:
Model: Bama Bows Tribute. Right Hand.
Bow length: 68" nock-to-nock.
Draw weight: 65# @ 27”.
Riser length: 16” fade to fade. Riser to be bedded.
Riser width: 1 1/8"

Limbs: Reflex / set-back. 3 laminations of tempered bamboo under black fibreglass on back and belly. No glass lamination between the bamboo laminations.
Limb width at nock: 7/16". (Just a suggestion. Final dimensions left to you.)
Limb width at riser: 1 1/8”. (Just a suggestion. Final dimensions left to you.)
Limbs not trapped to belly or back.
Handle: A straight and wedge / teardrop shaped grip, with the narrower end towards the belly. See attached pictures.
Handle width: Not less than 1 1/8”.
Handle depth: Between 2 1/8”" to 2 1/4" depending on my bow hand dimensions given below.
Wrist to tip of middle finger = 8”.
Finger span = 9 3/4”.
Width of palm, near wrist = 4”.
(The back of the grip should line up with the finger pads between the first and second finger joints.)
Shelf and Strike Plate: To be slightly radiused to minimise arrow contact.
Leather Strike Plate: 3/16" before centre or just enough for a 23/64" dia. arrow shaft. Hence, 3/16" or 0.2032" before centre.
Riser Wood: Cocobolo.
Riser overlay: None.
Riser accent stripe: None.
Riser accent flare: None.
