Title: Tillering Tree
Post by: tracker12 on May 23, 2016, 02:30:00 PM
Looking for some designs to build a Tillering tree/draw board so I can measure my draw weight with my ILF bows.

I can send you a picture of mine if you will give me your cell number. I don't know how to send pictures on the computer ( too old and not tech savy).

I need to make one some day. I tie weights to my string and measure.

Mine is a 2x4 bolted to the basement wall with a block at the top to hold the bow at the handle and a pulley at the bottom with about 8' of nylon rope with an "S" hook for the string. I have a yard stick attached to show draw length. You and attach the yardstick so it is adjustable for different thickness handles.
Here is a pic...
