Thanks LBR.

Mark, I agree with you. I tiller until I get the slightest bit put out. If things are going well, i will tiller a whole bow in a couple of hours nonstop. If thing get to going back and forth, i will put it up until later. I have a knoted character bow that I chased to one ring above my chosen ring, last fall. I have not touched it since. Now that things are slowing down, i am going to cut it out and finish chaseing it and work the knots down to a few rings above. I will post pics when I get her done, she is going to be a knotted mess. It is eat up with pin knots and great big branch knotts. About 7 or 8 per limb. I will be cussing the tiller on this bow. Which is a norm for a knotted up mess like this. Or at least from my experience. I would like to shoot for around 60lbs, but there is no way I will get that out of this mess. It will most likely be in the 50s.

I have also got to get out and shoot. I have not shot a bow but once since the last deer i shot. I am going to try to get out to Rowels three D range soon and don't want to be laughed out of Odessa.
