Tiller check
Fox:
Osage bow that is getting backed with sinew after I get it tillered. 60" TTT 1 1/4" wide at mid limb. Aiming for 40# at 26" currently at 33# at 23". the mildly wavy limbs are giving me a hard time judging on this one any advice would be appreciated! Thanks :)

Definitely wait for advise from more experienced bowyers than me, but it’s kind of hard to see fine detail against the backgrounds you have. I think at this point your tiller looks pretty good, and at 33#@23” I’m betting you’re awful close to your desired40#@26” before sinew. You will have to adjust the tiller after you apply sinew but I don’t know how much weight gain you might gain with the sinew. But I’m guessing you might want to add it before tillering any farther.
Fox:
That’s what I’m thinking too gonna sinew it today. Hopefully we’ll end up around the desired weight after sinew and dialing in the tiller
JW_Halverson:
Tiller check, or just trying a humble brag? Cuz that looks mighty fine!
I think you are pointed in the right direction. Press on!
