Another cool bow Dave.  About 20 years ago I made a 50" 50#@27" sinew backed osage bow that even had a non-bending grip, but I hunted with it for a couple of successful years.  It was one of my favorite bows.  It always amazed me that so little wood and sinew could make such a great shooting and tiny bow.  Good luck!
Seems like common sense isn't very common any more...

Sweet looking bow there Bob.  Ya it doesn’t take much wood to get a hunting bow. 
Sticks and stones and other poky stabby things.
