willie:
nice job, and kudos on the arrows for primitive

Aaron1726:
Thanks yall.  It's been a learning curve to finally make one I can take in the woods, but fun and worth it.  It's a blast to shoot, got all year to practice up for next deer season, so I'll let yall know how that turns out.

Paul, I think I'm already sucked in! :)

Willie, thanks about the arrows.  I find making those just as fun as making the rest of it.  Here's a shot with the bamboo quiver I made too.  Bit crude, but it's a fun setup.

George Tsoukalas:
Congratulations on your first hunter. What a great feeling!

The set is likely because of the tiller style. In other words, pyramid bows need to do more of the bending near the handle area where there is more wood. The tiller should appear more circular.

Your tiller is elliptical. Excellent for a bow with parallel limbs close to the nocks.

Congrats, nothing like shooting your own bow. :)

Nice! Congrats. Nothing like putting all the skills together to be able to make your own set up. Fine looking tiller and nice use of those skins, they look good.
