That's cool, I'm also currently working on a little hackberry bow.  I have one more heat correction to do, but that sucker shoots really fast for what it is.  Did you temper the crap out of it?

 No not yet. I took a little more out of the fades and lower tip.  Shoots fast.  Looked like I had a small hinge started in the lower limb.
Removed wood at tip and no hinge.

Nice, little bow. You could get a few more inches out of the draw if it  was bending closer to the handle and the last third of the limb.

 I have removed more wood at tips. Need to thin handle more. Thanks for all the comments.
