Making a Hickory backed maple - glued in some D/R. Pretty much pyramid front profile. After cutting it out and looking over the limbs, I noticed this area with some run out. It is about 4" in length (first picture) and is in the limb right at the "10" mark of the second pic. I did not originally plan on backing this bow, but what you think? If I do back it I would use deer rawhide.
Forgot - the hickory is just over 1/8 thick.
