You need to make sure the rest of your weight reduction comes fromthe inner third on both limbs, particularly the left.  Don't touch the midlimb on the right any more except maybe to sand it out.  Get it tillered evenly at 26" and then shoot it with that short sdraw about 50 times.  That'll tell you where to final tiller.  Good job.

Ranger3, looks real good. I am going to get back to an osage stave I have and the help they gave you and all the fine folk here have given me will be invaluable.
Congrats

Good job, I have been watching this build intently.  I know the emotions of going thru tillering can be tough.
