Well, being a newbie and all that that entails,I'll speak up 'cause I don't any better yet.
When I look to vote on BOM bows, I try to pick a bow that was well designed,tillered and finished and all that that includes such things as tiller,braced design,full draw design glue lines,tips and overlays,grips,backings, overall aesthetics's of the bow plays a big part( if'n it ain't pretty, why look at it ),overall craftsmanship of the bowyer and experience level,not aways is the most experienced the best looking,designed or built.
However I mostly go by what tickles my fancy and what I think I would like try to achieve. some of the more experienced people on here don't always win,
Anyhow these are just my silly ways of voting,and it seems to work for me, ;) ;D
PEACE

Guess I should apologize, I was just looking for input and ideas that might help myself and others a make decision when voting for BOM. I looked through all the titles in the BOM category and didn’t see any threads which appeared to relate to this subject. If the topic opens a can of worms and causes problems, Yank IT. However, I do think many of us might learn from others discussing the criteria they use, if done in a civil manner. Once again, I didn’t realize this would be a “touchy” subject that had been discussed before.
Justin Snyder:
Slivershooter, this is usually discussed on a thread where voting for BOM occurs. After the voting is complete the thread is replaced with a thread for the winning bow. That is why you cannot find another thread. Sounds like you have a great system that works for you. I will just say this, I wont look at a bow unless the tiller at full draw is great. Now if I could just shoot them all we would be in business. ;D Justin
