Nice job, Ben. Good to see you over here, too. ;)
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

Welcome aboard Ben! Nice little yew bow. I saw you mentioned that you thought the outer thirds could bend a little more, and while I didnt notice you ask for any tiller advice...here it is  ;)  Tiller looks good, but if there is any room for improvement, it appears to me that getting the limbs bending more right out of the fades during tillering wood have given you a little smoother draw with less mid-limb set, given that you have that nice pyramid front profile.

Looking forward to seeing more of your work!
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
