I see that too pat. But be careful because i also fear a hinge starting at the end of that flat spot towards the tip on the left limb.

Don't worry about asking ?'s we all need help now and then
failure is an option, everyone fails, it's how you handle it that matters.

Maybe a few scraps where Pat said, but if I were that close I would  short shoot it some and   recheck, sometimes it looks and acts different In your hand than it does on the tree. Looking very good. :)

When tillered by pulling the string at center, but shot while pulling it an inch or two higher, we should expect it to look and act different.

Ok, next paranoid question while I am waiting for weather to shoot the bow in some: I am going to make some laminated tip overlays - is superglue or TBII better for this application? I am leaning toward superglue.

I have used both and prefer high quality super glue myself. :) Either will work.

What kind of weather are you waiting for?

HAHA, I had to come home early monday to shoot my new bow. It's tough to shoot in the dark.
