Well, I got nothing to teach you! We'll done, plenty of good 5hough and adjustments made on all the little issues, well wxecuted. Esp if you took game with it, that's one solid beauty of a bow.

Thanks so much for the compliments everybody. I really like the way this one turned out. One big Ah-ha moment I had was when I split this log, I split it so any knots ran from back to belly. In the past I've been so afraid of having a knot on the back I would put any knots on the stave on the sides of the bow. I would hope that the knot was gone when tillering was finished, but most of the time I ended up with grain dips that ran across the whole belly. Usually I would end up with a hinge or chrysals. When the knot is straight back to belly it can be easily compensated for by making it a touch wider in that area.
