Thanks for that brock I will keep it in mind if I get any vibration or noise but so far she shoots sweet and strait.
I will definately spend better time on the grooves next bow. Its a big learning curve at the moment and enjoying it.
I used the air hose mate.

Cheers Wayno.

Wayno,

Great job man!

Having done tips every which way but loose I too prefer a shallow angle such as on you bow. Regardless of the string angle on a tip groove the "String loop" still has to stop at some point. So my reasoning is why not stop sooner rather than later? Mistakes have less time to magnify and I have noticed a notch up in the accuracy dept.
