Extreme bends throw the pitch off too making it hard to shoot unless cutting and building back up with a recoil pad.

Carvel and I use the same stock man. He knows his woods very well and has a good idea of what it will and will not do looking at it before he starts. Told me my VH had a good chance because it was French walnut sapwood lot of resin in the wood. Two Trojans one was light colored American walnut sapwood other darker straight American Walnut, he had his reservations about it and it bent a little less than the lighter color one.
