When I push with the heel of my hand it allows my fingers to be free to manipulate the string into the nock. I’ll try to get a picture in a bit to try and show what I mean.

I feel so dumb rn  >:( . I was at maybe at 60# at 26 or something. my brother comes along asking if i can teach him. and i say sure!! i pick a spot that was stiff and give him the farriers rasp to do 5 strokes with the light spiked side i watch him as he does it and then take it away from him. I forgot about keeping the sides the same width and one side got thin. and it started to twist. (this was near the fade) after fixing it all by freaking out and going fast I ruined messed up again and again (:fp) I am now at 25# at 26. I was hoping for 35#. now what im doing as im typing is heat treating it. my plan is to
1. Heat
2. Tiller
3. Pike
4. Tiller
and stop at anyone of those steps once its a good tiller at (around) 35#
I told gillsgills that i would use this alot sooooo  :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp :fp

You won't gain 10#.
Stop and think about you what can learn from this. Then move onto the next one.

not from just a heat treat. but with a heat teat and piking most likely i can get close. i dont really have enough wood to leave a bow hanging like this so i gotta try.

i guess your right. I spent 3 hours heat treating one limb. i messed the limbs up enough that dont think i can get an ok bow out of this. not even a training bow.
