Here's the sinew backed ERC molle unstrung right after about 50-60 arrows and about 150 total, braced, full draw right ways up, and finally full draw upside down. I've only shot it with stiff spines 500+gr arrows. But it feels good shooting the heavies. I'm happy with the tiller, but would like some opinions before I start all the decorating.

I like the first full draw myself.  That bow really came together man...ill admit I was a little skeptical but you really pulled it together.  Excellent job!

Kyle, that bow looks real good.  The tiller looks great and those levers don't appear to be bending.  Nice work.

Definitely the first full draw Kyle.
Makes me want to pull out my ERC stave and get it going! Nice work bud.

Thanks for the compliments everybody. This one definitely had me wondering if it would hold up. It does and shoots well. I just finished flying down the decorative backing. Turkey breast feathers and a couple of base of tail feathers over the fades transitioning to a rosette of breast feathers on the handle. I can't wait for the glue to dry so I can get some tru oil on it and see how it looks cleaned up.
