Torque
DC:
Two good points :D. I watched a bunch of Puujousi's slow-mo vids and the arrow is gone before the bow starts to wiggle.

but to a good advantage I suppose. so what kind of tiller makes it happen? and is it really "out of tiller" or a desirable tiller?
Pat B:
Maybe out of time. One limb is recovering slower than the other. What else would make a bow rock back and forth, front to back when shot?
willie:
Out of time seems like a better description. those Olympic bows are have independent adjustments for "tiller" or reflex/deflex, which i suppose makes the limbs time different. they seem to set them up that way so that they rock.
I wonder what advantage is gained by having it uneven?
Pappy:
If you aren't gripping your bow the top limb should roll forward after release, the top of the bow in heaver. Most of us don't notice it because we hold on to it. :)
