How does the tiller look on this bow for my son? This one has been a challenge. Tony

Kenny, this is some of those Cherry lams you cut for me. Haven't checked poundage yet, feels about 53-55LBS.

Tony, I have no experience with take-down bows, but that looks great. The tiller looks good. Are the limbs flat at mid-limb in the unstrung pic?

Nice design, Kenny is right, looks fast. The full draw pic has good lines. If I didn't see the unbraced pic, the braced pic would seem unusual with such straight limbs but the full draw pic says it all, looks good to me.

Yes, at about 10" they flatten for about 10" before the recurve. Tony

Looks like it will really zip an arrow - curves remind me of the curves on my RER but the angles off the riser are different.  I like!
Enjoy the hunt!  - Mitch

This design is fast, I'll hope to shot it tomorrow through a chronograph. I'll post the results tomorrow. Tony

Well, here's the bow with 4 coats of poly. Still haven't shot it, had some issues with tiller that had to be fixed. I'll shoot it tomorrow. Tony
