60" in hickory lefty with osage tips. Shes drawing 38lbs @ 26''. I finished it with 3 coats of beeswax.Looking at the pic it may need a tad more tiller.

Yup, wall walking will come in handy hunting too.  No more hassles with putting in climbing steps to the tree stand!

Nice bow, too.

Good looking hickory stick.  Tiller looks good to me. Actually drawing an arrow for the full draw pics helps show the tiller a little better ....  that and making sure she isn't shooting towards her feet ;D.  Nice bow.

I'd be happy to trade one of my hickory longbows for your wife, but what does she think of this offer???

Oh wait!  This is listed in the Bows category, not the Trading Post.  Anyway, you got my number in the p.m.   ;D
