The only place she's bending is in the handle area. The bend can start there and gradually increase elliptically. That bow will really cause you to shake on release. The nand shock will be fearsome. There are buildalongs on my site. Jawge

Your bow is not ready to pull as far as the picture depicts, needs the rest of the limbs bending instead of just in the fades.

Your bow needs to bend at mid-limb and tips before you pull it anymore, otherwise it's going to take a large amount of set.
