How does the tiller look on this bow for my son? This one has been a challenge. Tony

What Kenny "The Expert" said.
Kenny, this is some of those Cherry lams you cut for me. Haven't checked poundage yet, feels about 53-55LBS.

PFFFFT! :laughing:
Have you guys shot it much? How is it?
Haven't shot it yet. Maybe tomorrow, I'll post the finished pics and chronograph info in a day or so. Tony
Tony that looks nice carnt wait to see some more pics Thanks Shane
Looks nice! Would love to see strung and unstrung pics and some details on whats in the limbs.
You may not can tell much about this picture. The limbs are action boo taper and cherry parrallel. They have 8.25" cherry wedges. Black glass on the belly and clear on the face. Limbs are 29", Total bow length is 64".

Tony, I have no experience with take-down bows, but that looks great. The tiller looks good. Are the limbs flat at mid-limb in the unstrung pic?
Nice design, Kenny is right, looks fast. The full draw pic has good lines. If I didn't see the unbraced pic, the braced pic would seem unusual with such straight limbs but the full draw pic says it all, looks good to me.
Yes, at about 10" they flatten for about 10" before the recurve. Tony
Looks like it will really zip an arrow - curves remind me of the curves on my RER but the angles off the riser are different. I like!
This design is fast, I'll hope to shot it tomorrow through a chronograph. I'll post the results tomorrow. Tony
Nice job, looks like an aggressive recurve. Well done.
Well, here's the bow with 4 coats of poly. Still haven't shot it, had some issues with tiller that had to be fixed. I'll shoot it tomorrow. Tony

Beautiful work!!
Bow that is a aweet looking bow
Man! Do you need an adopted son, Tony? That is impressive
The finish really looks great! The whole package is very attractive, nicely done.
Very very nice!
That looks like it will really spit out an arrow. Looks good, nice work. Looking forward to seeing more and the numbers tomorrow.

That's the same bow as on page 1??? WOW! It sure did finish up spectacular!!!!
Yes it's the same bow as pg. 1. The riser is cherry and walnut, the limbs are cherry as well, I was well pleased and hope to shoot it tomorrow. Thanks everyone for your comments. Tony
