I need to update my profile, I've now got W&W Everest limbs The tiller is fine though as it was checked when I got them

However, the heel of the hand issue sounds interesting, as I do push my bow with my left hand, maybe I'm over doing it. I'll have do analyse it on Wednesday evening.

I'm hoping to try some new stabaliser set ups on Friday Just don't tell Mrs beardy

Interesting. I don't think my bow balances anywhere near there, I'm sure it's closer to the riser. Damn, I'm going to have tpo go and get it out now and put it together!

thanks for all the input
