Ryan,

I've been admiring your bows for several years now.  And this one is no exception. Very graceful tiller.

I have one question though, or maybe its a comment.  I've always noticed that your fades are very steep. And I always find myself, kind of distracted by them.  :).  I think its because your tillers have such an even, pleasing bend, and the fades kind of contrast with the tiller.  Of course I can fully appreciate wanting to get the most out of your working limbs, and this sin't a criticism, just an observation.  You'd have tp give up some draw length if the fades were much longer, but... man, I think it would look sweeter.  Maybe its a form vs function thing.  Its just a thing I've noticed over the while. Thanks for posting your bows.
