Very Nice Bow...and for a Second Bow....wow!  But I do believe that the Top limb is too stiff ....if this is supposed to be a Bend through the Handle D Bow....the Top Limb is not bending as much as it should be....but thats My Opinion....and I may be wrong....people come here for constructive criticism....at least I always thought they did!!

Thanks for the confidence Radius and thank you for the advice El Destructo! ;D  I was thinking that the top limb might be able to bend a bit more myself although when the bow is braced, the top limb has 1/4"+ tiller (6" out from the handle) so I may be wrong, but I 've decided to wait and see if anything unusual happens with the tiller as I shoot it.  I think 70 pounds is the maximum weight I desire in a shorter bow, so I'll definitely have room to play with if I decide to work out any developing tiller problems.  Or at least that's the plan anyway! ::)  Thanks again  Joe H
