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...
 

Nice looking bow and shop there.

Nice looking bow Moe she'll be a shooter.

Very nice, Moe.

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!

Very nice, Moe..

Begged the clock to speed up and get the weekend started!! Woo-hoo! Made it!!

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.

Finished another bow to go out with the red one i posted on here recently. this one is PNG Walnut r iser with black wattle veneers.

Came in at 45# @ 28'' and 68 NTN.

Last one.

Ok forgot this one.

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.

Started on my first recurve, a take down 62".  Got the riser block in the oven .

Real nice, Bobby Boy..
