Short draw hunting bands

KawKan said:

What length draw?
If it's half your butterfly draw, use the same latex and double the taper widths. Or use double bands with the same taper widths.
This is the price we pay for short draw lengths: twice the latex equals twice the draw weight for similar performance.

With .50 to .60mm, cut to 6 inches active length. Taper 3/4-inch to 5/8-inch.
If you don't feel like the latex is bottoming out, you could cut it down to 5-1/2-inches.
You could go to 1-inch on the wide end of the taper for a little more oomph.

I'm experimenting right now with some light bands on my raptor pfs from RCC to figure out what taper I want to use. Simple Shot .4 latex with a 5.5 active length tapered 20-15 shooting 8mm steel. I'm using the Arturo offset pouch technique, and drawing to my cheekbone. I've learned quickly to compensate for the spin the offset pouch puts on the ball.

Can someone post the link to the "Arturo offset pouch technique"? For some reason, it's not coming up for me anymore...

Here you go, Reed!

I had a heck of a time finding myself, even though I knew almost every word of the title! It wouldn't show up in a search for me either.
