Looking good,so far.Right limb looks a little stiff mid limb. :) May just be the picture looks like it is at a bit of an angle.

Pappy, I think your right on with your call. I have a tendency to make mine bend too much right out of the fades and then end up with a little set so I been makin Kamron work more from mid limb to tips. Now I think we are ready to get it bendin more in the fades to mid limb??? The tips are really snaky and narrow( carvin out the wind shear) so I dont think we want to put too much stress on them..any advice welcomed....Brian (dad)

I try to save the first 3 or 4 inches out of the  fads and the last 6 inches or so on the tips
till last.If fact I leave the tips pretty stiff.You will get it whip tillered if you get the tip weak
and it always wants to bend in the fads because that is the hinge point on the limb ,so I am careful and get them bending last when all I am doing id reducing weight.If it takes  a little set at the fads it will show a lot of follow at the tips. :)

Pappy, we put it back on tiller tree and I think it was the angle of the pic cuz it aint stiff lookin on that right limb now ;). We got it at 42# @ 20" with the short string and its still bouncin back to good reflex unstrung. Again were aimin for 45# @ 25" so we are gettin close! :o This bow is just shy of 56" with a 4" handle so we might have to put a little whip in the tips...we shall soon see :D....Oh ya, we got some shorty rattlemouthcottonmocosin skins from Pine Hollow to put on it when Kams done with the tillerin....Brian

Well fellers she didnt blow on me! 25"@47' with the room for sanding left. All that is left to do is the snake skin backing and the tips. What I plan to do with the tips is a 2 layer. The first layer deer antler and the second layer, black cow horn. New pics are added below of course. :o :o :o :o

P.S.
To Oldbow please don't post my BOM because it isnt truly finished yet.
Thank You,
   Kamron
