this is a weird picture. a breeze came through and kinda turned it a bit so it looks like the bottom limb is off...





lets hear your guys criticism. hopefully I got this tiller just right.

 kid, it is hard to tell without a straight on picture. How far do you have it tillered out? It looks good from what I can see, but have someone take a pic while you hold it straight up and down and draw it a ways - but not past your target weight.

Even if you turn the tillering stick 90 degrees from where it is right now and take a pic from the same position, it will be better, but that will leave the bow drawn for a long time and possibly cause some set.

I think you are making progress. What wood is it?

A piece of hickory board I had in my garage. Made kind of an elb style bow. It's tillered out to 52-53lbs at 26 inches. So around 55-57 lbs at 28" fits my guy good I think

Kid - you may have already posted this, but I don't remember...what is the length of your bow?  Looks like your going for a bendy handle?  A picture with it drawn to your weight would be good.  The pic you have posted looks to be drawn to around 8-10".  From what I can see though, it is looking ok - maybe a little stiff outer third.  Keep posting progress.

The tips are recurved a bit. Also the only reason it's drawn the way it is is because thats kind of a make shift tiller stick. It draws back to 28" fully.
