problem with new bow

[Strongbow88]

I have already posted a message on my new bow but now I have A problem.  Ok, both linbs are the same length and when iI finished tillering it and after a couple dozen shots I sealed it with Deer fat. The tiller opened up about 1/4 of an inch more on the top limb. but now after about a hundred shots it opens up about 1/4 of a inch more on the bottom limb and follows the string about 1/4 of an inch more on the bottom limb. I am happy with the wait of the bow, but should I take some scrapes of the top limb to even it out or should I just leave it alone.
                                           Thanks for the help

You have a working bow that shoots arrows, unless you plan on doing heavy shooting with it, just let it be. I think you should just learn from you mistakes and use your new knowledge on the next bow . JMO  Ty

Honestly, when you shoot self bows I don't think it is a good idea to look all that close once you get them shot in. I was storing all my bows in a big 55 gallon drum, I didnt realize for along time that the end inside the drum had a higher humidity than the end sticking out, everytime I would pull a bow from the drum that had been in their for a while the tiller would be way off. All they needed was a little time to accimate the moisture. Steve

If the bow shoots sweet and is accurate then I would leave it.  Sounds like its just getting shot in and you are seeing the how the bow reacted to the shooting. Often bows do need a little touch up after they have been tillered. Usually I'm carrying a scraper with me when I shoot in a new bow, and am making subtle adjustments to the tiller as I put arrows through it. My feeling is a bow with 500 shots is barely broken in, when over a lifetime hopefully it may take 100,000 + shots, and the break-in process is often longer than most realize..

thanks guys I think I will Just leave it alone, but my fear was that the bottom limb would continue to follow the string more and bend more than the top as described by paul comstock in traditional bower bible volume two I think.
