Title: Tillering Critique
Post by: Gaust on September 15, 2014, 05:00:09 pm

Thought I'd take a break and take a photo.  This is at the short string stage.  Any comments welcomed.  Sorry for the background.

The left limb looks very good to me. The right limb looks to be working at the fade pretty hard.

Looks like it's coming along good to these eyes.   I would low brace it at three or four inches and see how it looks then.

I would take a few scrapes off of the outer 2/3rds of the right limb. Exercise it a bunch then brace that sucker. JMO Patrick

That's what I see. Lefty looks nice though. Use your straight edge.

Yeah, I definitely see that left side needs work.  Thanks all.
