look's to me like most will be gone by the time ya narrow the tips, and leave the tips non bending , I assume that is a tip seems wide

Is that a side view or the back or belly?  If it is a side view.  Is the right or left the back?  Looks like it could work out.

how wide is the limb? if its wide enough and the check in shallow enough you can narrow it and itll go away.

Just sand the tip to an angle of about 30 degrees and glue a hardwood tip overlay onto the crack. Should be no problem then!

this is the back...from the side profile i could thin the check out of it..i think..but still have the depth for strength..just a guess on my part.

I can't tell from the pics but the levers / tips won't bend so your prolly good to go, remember the levers only have to be a little thicker to not bend but if the tips get real narrow leave a little more thickness
