A recent topic reminded me of something I noticed once when I made a video of myself shooting a bow I made. When I froze the video just after release, I could see the entire bend of both limbs and although I find it extremely hard to visualize tiller, it was extremely apparent to me from that view. I don't have a nice enough camera but I think that you could do the same thing if instead, you set up your camera far enough away to see the entire bow, set your exposure time for 3 or 4 seconds and bent the bow within the exposure time. Do people do this?

I use my camera a lot lately to check final tiller. I used to think I could see tiller pretty well on the tree, but it is so much more apparent when you draw the bow normally with an arrow, and make sure the arrow is drawn correctly.

I think you'd get nothing but blur. Just a still shot at full draw should tell you what you need.

Full length mirrors, an open window at night ( my poor neighbors!) and a digi cam all can help assess tiller. Jawge
