Good looking bow so far Knoll.Like the way those kind shoot too.Are you at your draw length and weight with it in the picture though?

Ed, it's at my pathetic short full draw, but a few lbs to sand off.

Re: bbo . . . tiller review - FULL DRAW PIC

Here it is at full draw and desired draw weight, though 2 lbs less would be ok too.
Balanced? Don't have good feel for that. Maybe 'cause handle is still sooooo deep & wide.

Looks pretty good Michael. Does it feel balanced? Are you at desired weight? If you like it I do.

Wow I can see from the previous pic you took some wood off that boy.Shape the handle to feel good.It looks good.I have a friend that has had his draw length shorten over the years but he still shoots a lot.

Looks very good from up here.

looking very good. If you're going for speed, you could probably still narrow the tips down a bit, and even trap them a little to lose some extra outer limb weight.
If you don't care, just leave it as it is.
