Tiller check
« on: May 09, 2015, 01:51:49 pm »
Hey I'm about to finish this one off.  At brace it's .3 mm greater gap on the bottom limb.  However at full draw I fell the top bends slightly more.  And it feels great shooting.  Any suggestions on the tiller before I wrap her up?

thanks!
Thanks,

Looks like the upper limb has a little twist but other than that it looks fine.

I agree that it looks good to go.

It looks pretty good to my eyes too! If you feel like the top limb is a little more then draw it in a mirror then flip it over and draw it again. I'll bet it looks the same. Patrick

Sounds good guys!  Yea the upper limb has a natural twist at rest. The tips r good so I figured I'd let it do its thing. 😉😄
