Good stuff Jeffro. The last osage I made and posted here has a very positive upper limb. I had to forget about its appearance and worry about its balance and feel. So, I kept scraping the top limb until it came into balance in relation to my hold on the bow. It still bugs me when I look at it braced, but I forget quickly after a few shots.

Well I'll just say this.It's more fun to hit what your aiming at.As long as set does't appear on one limb more then another with a different type positive tiller I'd say don't worry about it.Stressing it completely while tillering and then shoot it a lot.Time will tell in the long run.I want my bows to stress evenly yet and hit what I'm aiming at yet too.I usually get along well with 1/8" positive tiller with the string nocking point the same.The same distance above center of handle on  bows of even lengthed limbs.
