Title: Reflex/deflex Hackberry Tiller** Updated pic**
Post by: LeightonM on May 20, 2017, 04:36:34 pm

I just got this 62" ntn, 35# @ 27" to full draw. It's for my wife. Its the first of this design that I've built. Tillering is a bit more complicated  :BB What do you think? Any adjustments?

 Too much bending in the inner limb right near the fade, loos like it may have taken some set there. The middle limb should be bending more.

That second full draw looks much better. At this point I would let the set locations and feel of the shot tell you if it's fully correct or not. But if be content with it as is.

I agree, the 2nd FD pic looks much better. You're getting the hang of this tilliering thing. Keep it up!
