Nice bow, Ryan! Your tiller is spot on. Have you tried white oak as a backing wood? I've heard it's good in tension. I have a hard time finding hickory for backing, but white oak is available.

i've used alot of white oak for backing and selfbows, never failed, yet, in bend test's it breaks after hickory, Bub
