Thanks men!!!  That was a big lesson for me:  light bow does NOT equal easy bow!!!!  Real easy to get a hinge in there, as you can see from the tillering pics. 

We've had several of those back yard safaris ;)  , hope to take him several times this summer to do some roving and stump shooting on some property some friends of mine have.

 I REALLY appreciate all the feedback and tillering advice you guys have given, been a great learning experience.  Feelin like i got lucky getting my first few bows tillered out at all given how tough this one was and how much i learned along the way :)

Well, there's more to come, in fact I have a 50# hickory bow in tiller right now, hope it goes a little smoother!
