Not too late Jamie and you may find you can shorten the bow some without losing any reflex

I love that Jamie.   remarkably similar profile to a 63" rigid handled elm I'm finishing up (re-do of old one).  If I had it to do all over again I think I would cut not much else besides elm and black locust.
