Its all about a proper tiller, the rest is just fluff for us bow porn addicts

Couldn't agree more. Proper tiller, design and execution first... then fluff. I do like pretty bows, but they need to be well made bows first.

There's no reason he shouldn't like it. Nice point also.

Thanks guys!  I've got a couple other photos I'll post up of thr unbraced profile.  The stave had a wonky deflex that runs out just below the grip.  Made for an interesting tiller with the lower limb.  Let me get a pic up...

I've been knappin a lot more lately and I'm finally starting to make a half way decent point.  Still got a loooooong way to go.  Time for me to start posting more in the knapping section!

Just got home from Cade's, Steve, and saw this Awsome bow. Man, you nailed that tiller, and you know I'm not impressed with gators or hogs. ;D ;)

Way to put a bend in a bow, great looking tiller on that one. Nice points as well, whoever gets that package should be pleased.

Here is the unbraced picture and that kink in the lower limb.  Finished two cane arrows to go with it.  They turned out well.  A heavy trade point and the other I put in an insert for a carbon arrow and field point.  Just wondering if I should wrap behind that field point?  It'd be heck on it pulling it out of a target I figure...

Wow thanks for the un-braced pic that explains the FD pic the looks like a hinge at the fade of the bottom limb.
Very nice job on a difficult stave.

Thanks Pap.  I put a single layer of cotton string under the alligator to give it a little cushion feel but I also like how it sorta "grabs" the leather.  I have another thigh from that gator that has MY name on it! ;D
