More pictures of first try.
« on: June 06, 2009, 03:25:00 AM »
Well here it is at full draw . Came out at 67" long and 48@26" That will take a coyote.
Now to round it off a little and make it pretty . It shoots pretty smooth Im in shock that it came out like it did . Is the lower limb bending a little more than the top?.
 
 
Thanks for the info you guys put on this place . Realy cool place. Tim.

Very nice. Congratulations on your first. The tiller looks pretty even but it's bending too much towards the tips and not enough close to the handle. You can tell that by where it has taken set. jawge

Just as Jawge said, it could bend more in the inner limbs. But hey be happy your first is a shooter.   :thumbsup:

Thanks Im going to see if I can get it to bend more in the inner limbs.Already thinking of my next one . This is worse than reloading. Way more fun.

Be careful not to get it bending too close to the handle, leave about an 1" or 1 1/2" of non bending limb, the handle could pop off. Been there done that.
