advice for yew knot.
« on: November 19, 2015, 03:46:56 pm »
Hoping for some advice on how best to treat this knot,  it's 6&1/2" down from the top nock, I chopped the bow down 15" after a sapwood splinter lifted, due to the new length of 64" I feel this area will be working more and I want maximum movement throughout to get to the 30ish" draw. (I've picked out the soft line of the knot edge with a pin and run in superglue, the pen lines on the back are roughly where I will continue to remove down to, not sure how much of the knot would be left).
Thanks if someone with more knowledge than me concerning knots see it as being a problem or/and could offer any advice,

Not much you can do with it. Considering its location, I'd continue on with your build.
