On the early tiller.

Pulling 30# at 7" of tip bend. Aiming for 40-45# at 28".

Haven't wrapped the siyahs yet.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Its only bow number 3, so I'm really feeling around in the dark here. I think I've still got lots and lots of wood to shave off that belly if I want 45# at 28". I'd go heavier, but I'm not sure if the unbacked wood will take it...
