Tiller on a bow

Does it matter if the tiller on your bow is off a little?

It could cause arrows issues, handshock and a premature demise of said bow. Check out the bowyers bench forum to get the most accurate, quickest help.

What do you mean by "off a little?"  Your bow was probably built with positive tiller.  This means the lower limb is a little stiffer.  This is normal practice.  Chad
