What do you think of the tiller on this bow.  It is 66" NTN, bamboo backed osage laminate bow?
Braced
 
Draw to 26"

Charlie rotate your picture 90 degrees and post it again. Also what does the profile and unbraced pic look like? Its too hard to judge tiller without knowing.

Put your gizmo in the hingy spot out of the fade on the right limb, adjust it for the deep bend and run it up the limb. There will be a bunch of pencil marks from mid limb out.

It needs to be drawn and shot by hand now Charlie. I may change some and the bow wont look the same in your hand.  It doesnt look too bad at all now.

Got the bow shot in and really like the way it shoots.  Dead in the hand, and quiet.  Here is the money shot with Marvin shooting it along with a picture of the tips
