Thanks guys. I am very new at this I swear. I am a big fan of Sam harper's website. I started with red oak bows and just kind of worked my way up. I'll get some draw pics up soon. The first two have shooting vids and you can see those full draws in the YouTube links I posted. I haven't done a shooting video for the last one yet. Hopefully, I'll get that one taken care of this weekend. Going camping and target shooting is how I pass my time out there.

Your second video, the bow limb is doing all the bending right out of the fade. Make yourself a gizmo, it will help your tillering.
