Tonight I took my first r/d or hybrid out the form and roughed the cutie a little. Guess I`ll be in love soon...

Hey guys, I just got the goves filed in and strung it up for the first time... very "smooth" drawing- maybe caused by 20#@30" :rolleyes:
Its 61" ntn with 15" handle and I am a bit confused bout the tiller, so what do you fellas think?

I`d be glad about any opinions!

Hey Moe,
It looks like the belly side fades of the riser are not equal, the right side of the pic looks to be longer. The limbs don't look off much I think most of the issue is the riser. Make yourself a new riser template in which both fades are equal double check your form also.

Start a new thread of this and more guys will pitch in.

Also you could take 3 inches of the right limb and 2 of the left limb and have 35#or so at 28 or a 56" bow that is around 28# @ 25 in, perfect for a lady or teenager.

Like heartlandbowyer said, the fades of the riser are not equal. If you want less reflex when the bow is strung you need to move the bends closer to the riser and make the radiuses larger.

Awesome woods you got down there- and an excellent taste for combinating them. The accents are so well placed- just great!

I worked some more on my HBH I started a while back. It's all glued up and shaped now and I trapped the limbs this morning. I'm now ready to start the tillering process this weekend.
