How does having a bow that is tillered for three fingers under affect a split finger shooter? Is it noticable? Would it make you reconsider purchasing a second hand bow if you shoot split and the bow is tillered for three under?
I have 3 that are tillered for 3 under, I shoot split and all shoot fine.
I had my first widow tilered for 3 under, then I switched to shooting it split for 14 years. No issues
I find it hard to believe anyone shoots a hunting bow well enough to tell any difference. Much adoo about nothing imo.
If your arrows are properly tuned, then you are golden.
I've owned two recurves tillered even, and shot them split. They were so quiet it was sick! :archer2:
I think the biggest change would be going from Split to three finger under on a bowl tailored for split finger.
Primarily discomfort to the ring finger.
I ordered my new Sarrels longbow tillered even, and I shoot split!

Threeunder/zero tiller: will shoot either way just fine. Tillered split: shot threeunder will likely be noisier and require some extra fiddling with nock point. Threeunder/zero tiller gives you potential to switch back and forth. Don't overthink it. I'm a dedicated split finger shooter so I can shoot either type just dandy.
I recommend even for most applications. The bow will be quiet shooting split of 3U. If tillered positive it will be noisy shooting 3U.

I tiller all my bows dead even unless the bow seems to want something else. I want that string to have no buzz when it is plucked. Then I test shoot the bow to determine accuracy and deadness of hand. On the average though dead even is what she gets.

I shoot three under and have shot bows tilered for split without any problems, last two bows I ordered were tilered for 3 under and didn't really notice any difference. Maybe just a little in nock height.
