Like it Jess. I also like how you have your bow held on the tree.

Yep nice looking bow! Re the tree, good idea to have it secure. as I was tillering a wood bow recently and tiller string snapped and some how bow smacked me right between the eyes. What sort of material is the block on top?

Same limb design just longer? Betting that is a sweet shooter.

Looks like it would be around 47-48# @ 30"... just perfect for me!!!

All kidding aside, another great bow from you.  I also like your tillering tree setup.  Having that peg board behind the limbs really highlights the angle of the tips.
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
