Slow and steady wins the race, Ranger. Once I hit floor tiller I use nothing but a scraper to tiller the bow. 20 to 30 scrapes, lots of exercising but not beyond draw weight and back to scraping. I put lots of hours doing it this way and since I started doing it this way my bows have come out better.
 Thanks Ruddy.

I haven't shot it since, Kris. I will shoot her tomorrow. I need to put a lot of arrows through her. I'll get a finish on her soon too.

Cool build!! To tell the truth, I haven't had much time to shoot any bows.

Maybe when I get my planting all done, I'll have a bit more time.

I plan on taking game with it this year sometime tho!!  :archer:
Stay sharp, Kenny.
