Tiller check pl.
« on: February 15, 2011, 09:04:14 am »
This is my latest bow. It was a tough tiller on a character elm stave. I think it is ok for start to use it, but like to hear opinions from pros :)

The bow is 67ntn 21.7 OZ 60# at 27, holds 2.5 reflex from the belly 1.5 from the back of the gripp. (drawn pic on 26)

Some cosmetic work left.







thanks

I really like the lines of this bow, especially the braced photo. Tiller looks fantastic. Great job.

I'm thinking perfection has little adjustment.

Ok, a little stiff here, scrap a little there and then send it me for a chrono test.  ;D

Fuzy, you are out of control.  ::)
