Question on tillering:

When assessing the tillering curve, is it more important to go by the belly curve or the back curve?

I have to wait for the Wife to get back home from work this evening, so that I can get her to take a photo.  Thanks man!  I got lucky.  But this can get addictive.  Just won a bid for an already seasoned osage stave, and bidding on another hickory stave.   I know starting with board bows would have been cheaper, but I just like the idea of the rawer piece of wood.

I know Osage is different to work on and that you have to chase that ring, but I have a smaller, 51 inch osage stave that I bought just over a year ago, when I bought the hickory one in the photos.  I think I will practice chasing the ring on that one and try and make my son a kid's bow, before I work on the other osage stave.
