If it were me, I would get those outer limbs bending a little more.

Nice one Bubby.

Yes definately needs the mid to outers working some more.
I bet you get the next one just right!

Thanks for all the comments guys I haven't tried one of these in a few years, but I'm gonna rethink things and glue up another and see how that goes

I concur with Adam on tiller...BUT if it puts a smile upon your face and your happy with it,then so am I

I don't have a clue on R/D bows, but it looks cool!  Josh

I to think a touch more mid limb bend.realy like the wood contrast between the limbs snd grip.

The maple on maple looks good, just a slight contrast.  Are those two different species of maple, or just the difference in two separate cuts of lumber?

I agree, have all along, I did a little test and drew the profile on the ground marking each side of the grip, then braced and marked, then put it on a tiller stick at 25" and marked, middle 16" barely left the line at brace, and about 1/4" @ 25", my ? is this, how would you tweek the form , move out the bottom of the deflex, basically shorten the outers? y'all have done way more of these than me
