Not to discount anything said. But in my opinion, there is no need to temper it and I see no hinge. Leave the first 10-12" alone right off the handle on each limb, scrape from there clear to the tips 12-15 times on each limb.

I see. I will give that a shot. I would actually like to reduce the draw weight to about 45#, so that might be the ticket.

Yup. Hit the center 5-6" on top. Then it's time to shoot it a bunch

Shoot it a hundred times and see what's what Scott. It may settle in a bit and change slightly.

Will do. It draws 48# @ 27" (my target weight was 45# @ 27" but no worries), brace height is 6", and the length is 62" tip-to-tip. Thanks, again, guys.
