It's time for the sweats. Critique "Stick".

[George Tsoukalas]

She's 60 in. ntn. 53# at 26 inches. She started with an inch of natural reflex and now has 3/4 in. of follow. The top limb and bottom limbs have a prop twist with the top's more pronounced. The tip fo the top limb is rather narrow because that's the way the stave was. The bottom limb is a bit  snaky.
Let me have it. Both barrels! Jawge

That was the braced picture.
Unbraced.



Tip of top limb with the pronounced prop twist.



Tip of bottom limb.



Full draw- one side.



Other side.

[George Tsoukalas]

Stick is tillered to bend in the fades and in the handle. The handle dimensions are 1 inch thick and 1.25 in wide. Jawge

Here are the beginnings of the lower limb. Jawge

You never let that prop. twist scare you.   The tiller looks really good to me.  The limbs seem to be bending in a really nice arc. No hinges or flat spots that I can see.

[AKAPK]

Nice and perfect How far is the arrow Pointed to the left  George? Phillip

[Kegan]

Looks great to me, but the top limb looks a little stiffer- however I think that's just my imagination. Looks like a real stick-slinger !

[Jesse]

Looking great to me. I like the tiller pointing to the left the best. I think the background is more clear. 

[George Tsoukalas]

Thanks, Rick. No props don't scare me.mThanks, AK. The arrow points to the left a bit but it doesn't matter as I point the arrow at the target. I did rasp that area a little to bring it over. Just a little 'cause the handle bends so I had to be careful with that. Thanks, Keegan. That's the tip with a twist and it's really narrow so I tried to limit the bending. Note that you get 2 different views of the tiller depending on the side. Thanks, Jesse. Thank you but y'all don't have to be so nice. Let me have it. Jawge

[michbowguy]

[OldBow]

I wouild recognize those sweats anywhere
Keep us posted on this fine bow.

Ummm, what kind of wood is this?

[George Tsoukalas]

It's hickory, Oldbow. Thanks. Jawge

[sailordad]

wow trying to critique you thats a tuffie,but here goes
even though it has prop twist i would have to agree with kegan,the top limb does look a little stiff,flip and use it for the bottom if ya can.other than that i would say
"hope my hick bow  with slight prop twist turns out that nice".

once again jawge, nice looking bow.
is that pignut hickory? looks to be the same as what mine is.

                                                                    peace,
                                                                           tim

Thanks, Michbowguy and Sailordad. Thanks for the critique, Sailordad.  Jawge

    Nice Tiller, look's great, Jawge! But a bow with 3/4" follow will shoot slow and you need to be carefull  if the limbs are twisted like a propeller. And there is some kind of brown looking stain, or something, on the back. Do you think that might jeopardize the integrity of the bow? Also, what kind of wood is it? 

   Other than that, it looks cool to me.
