Full draw pictures
Hillbilly:
I greatly prefer to see a human being drawing a bow, partly for the reasons already given.
Badger:
I prefer a human drawing as well, but a good view for judging. Dana, I have thought the same thing many times, I try and take a bowyers experience into consideration when looking them over, if I see a releatively new bowyer so a real nice job it will often get my nod. Whre is if a man is putting out consistently good work every month I tend to expect more out of him when I vote. Steve
Marc St Louis:
I have posted before that if the full draw image is not square on that I will pass on voting. Also I like to see an unbraced picture of the bow because that tells me something about the bow as well. I picture of a bow on the tree make me cringe though.I used to do that many years ago but use the timer on my camera now and draw by hand. Much better for the bow. Like you, eye candy does not move me unless the bow is also very well made and tillered
Ryano:
Yep, square but not on a tillering rack. Drawing the bow with your hands tells you much more. ;D
Did I mention I hate tillering rack full draws? ::)
Pat B:
I try to hold my bows vertical when having pics made to show here on PA. Also, I try to have a somewhat neutral background so the bow, and all its glory ::), make a good appearance. The tiller tree doesn't work for me because I can't hold at full draw and take the pic by myself...and my wife hates to come to my dusty basement shop. ;D I have noticed that the bow at full draw on the tiller tree can be differant from the when I pull to full draw. The bow's position on the tree as well as where you attach to the string will make a big difference. Pat
