Title: Tiller check pl.
Post by: fusizoli on February 15, 2011, 09:04:14 am: This is my latest bow. It was a tough tiller on a character elm stave. I think it is ok for start to use it, but like to hear opinions from pros :)

The bow is 67ntn 21.7 OZ 60# at 27, holds 2.5 reflex from the belly 1.5 from the back of the gripp. (drawn pic on 26)

Some cosmetic work left.

Post by: gmc on February 15, 2011, 09:17:41 pm: I'm thinking perfection has little adjustment.

Ok, a little stiff here, scrap a little there and then send it me for a chrono test. ;D

Fuzy, you are out of control. ::)
