Tiller is one limb is stiffer than the other so it would be that way at full draw and relaxed.  It is measured in the relaxed postion by how far the string is from each limb at the same point.

hello mustoffa!

at the tilleringprocess, it´s best to look after a even and optimal distribution of strain along each limb. the optimal distribution depends on the design of your bow limbs.
