I think I'm done missed my weight though. shooting for 65# and i think it is aboult 50# @ 28".  Now for the arrows. I got some poplar dowels at lowes.  Any advice out there?  About all  I have is sandpaper. :-\

Well looks pretty good to me. Especially for your first one.  Check in the arrow section for questions on making arrows, they aint that hard. ;D

Got one more tip fer ya...when you use these Pictures as an Aid for Tillering....make sure that you are drawing the Bow evenly also...in this Picture...you are Anchored a bit too high...which will change the Look of the Bow at full draw....
