Looks a lot better paka. Yes lower limb should be a little stiffer. Denny

Well unfortunetly I think the lower limb is now weaker than th top limb , I took off just a little to much wood. I tell you what though , it sure shoots good.  Will try to get the full draw pics taken soon . Gonna take it Friday to find some pigs  ;)

Got to shoot it today at 20 yards and she does her job well. Was a blast. Heres the full draw pic , little uncomfortable in a small room but untill I can get outside it"ll do .  I guess I took to much out of the bottom  midlimb and not enough from top tip. Thats the complete opposite of where the bow was arlier on in this build ??? ;D . So its funky and I cant wait to build another and keep working on tillering , but if it puts meat on the table that will be unreal . Enjoy Paka
  P.S. Thank"s Everone for all your help , Mahalo Nui Loa

you could always tiller it lighter and back to positive tiller and then glue on a thin lamination to the belly.
