Ruddy Darter:
 Thanks boomhowzer and bownarra, I worked it back square belly and sides (drawknife spokeshave rasps), I had shortened the bow so I was able to remove a fair bit,remarking on the new dimensions every 100mm after each run,and reimbursed the remaining profile, marking even streaks either side with a fat pencil and removing with spokeshave/rasp. When the whole length is done I then rasp towards the centre line to get the round  belly. Also the back profile.
Performance wise It is awesome, with the short and light limbs it is very fast and feels more nearer to 100lbs with a 31" arrow, I am very happy with the bow. An ideal bow to use after the long layoff with the shutdown and all.
 R.D.
