Title: Kodiak Hunter Tiller
Post by: Bow Bum on March 15, 2011, 10:34:00 PM
60" AMO KH. Prob mid-late 70's. Any idea what the tillering was for these bows?

Thanks in advance,

Brian

Upper limb slightly longer than lower?

If you mean release - about 99% of the bows made on Earth beween 1900 and 2007 would be for split finger.

That's where I was going. Tillered for split or 3 under.

The bow seems to pull better with 3 under, but its loud as all get out when I do. 3 under is just awkward for me anyway. But the bow just feels like its better balanced when I draw it 3 under.

Thanks,

My K.Hunter is a fairly noisy bow and is the only bow I own with moleskin patches along the string grooves where the string contacts the limbs.  Smooth and reliable, but not quiet.  Better with the moleskin and big wool silencer puffs.
