Clay, helped me with the last 12-14 inches of tillering on this, Thanks!

Finally got this one finished, started it almost a year ago.  Just got a string for it yesterday, and had to string her up and go see how it bent, now gotta get some arrows..............

looks great congrats on finishing the project. i think we all get those from time to time but it certainly makes the end result so much better.let us know how she shoots.

Shot it yesterday, have some cedars that are 55-60, and they shoot good, slight kick to the left, now I just need to remember if that is a weak or stiff spine?

if youre shooting right handed and they kick left spine is too stiff. its always great to fling the first batch of arrows out of a just finished bow, especially one that takes awhile to finish.

If it's the nock and feathers kicking to the left then they are too weak for a righty. That beeing the point to the right and feathers to the left at impact.
