Beautiful bow!...again.
And this one even looks civilized  ;)
My thinking is that your "substandard wood"as you put it benefitted much from your choosen layout,
and in combination with your skill at tillering made this pretty bow perform.

Bowmaking is made of countless combination of woods, design, lengths and strengths, beacuse that I like it so much!  :D
This weekend I hope to finish at least one elm warbow, this bl bow was warm-up for making that warbow.

Thank you very much Marc... I was in temptation to heat treat in some reflex, following your advices, but finally I quit- probably (highly) reflexed bow wouldn't be good decision for untrained archer.
