I'm gonna need some pics before I make an accurate analysis of your progress.   :D  

It sounds like my kinda bow to be honest. I love them R/D longbows, I'm getting ready to use my new caul to build one shortly.   :thumbsup:

Here it is off the caul. If it turns out to be a shooter, I might use it for my swap bow. Thoughts?

 

I know it looks like a board, but the rings in that portion of the tree grew flat, not crowned, which I think will help spread out the stresses.

it will work. That design works very well with osage. Thin the tips more than 1/2in. And she'll scream.
