Tiller
Tiller is the difference in draw weight between
the upper and lower limbs. This is easily meas-
ured by noting the difference in distance
between the top limb butt to the string, and
the lower limb butt to the string. To set tiller,
measure the distance from the base of the
limb pockets to the bow string on both the
top and bottom bow limbs. The main func-
tion of tiller is to allow the archer to more
easily and comfortably aim during the draw
and release of the shot. When initially put-
ting your bow together, we recommend you
begin with 0-1/8” positive tiller. (Bottom
measurement 0-1/8” less than top measure-
ment.)
