HEY guys I have been reading and enjoying all the information I have been getting on this site,Ive got the hickory bow Ive been working on tillered to 60   # at 20 inches and think it is looking pretty good if I dont mess up in the next 6 inches Ill be a happy guy,probably lucky too.Igot an osage and nice black locust stave from Eddie and gave the black locust stave to a friend.Told him the info on the site said to take it down to one ring,He didnt and now that ones in his garbage, but Im looking forward to trying my luck on the osage in a bit.Hopefully Ill get the equipment to post some pictures soon,thanks again .

If it is looking good at 20" you should have no problem with the next 6". Probably only reducing weight is all you have to do.    Pat
