Nice stick Bub. I say leave every bit of that reflex in it and make a sweet working handle bow. If you have my name, I give you permission to build that for me!

was able to get my brain going and got some work done on the bow bit's on a short long string here at 14 in., i had to take some of the reflex out, thought it might be to much for the stave, i know everytime i tryed to work it it kept flipping on me, all hand tools so far, hatchet, files knives for scrapers, Bub
