  nice looking bow, mark...   i don't make this style bow but i just thought of something...  i am not sure of everyone's process but should you be shooting the bow also, so that it gets used to the shock at 20" of draw instead of just flexing it all the time up to 28" and then shooting it...  or is this not common practice or ever been tried...

Some people like to shoot them, and then do a final tiller.

Yup what Mark said.
Wooden bows are more finicky than glass bows.

Awesome job! The only issue I can see is if you laid it too near the wrong person it might get shot, or they break their necks trying to get away from it.

I have not shot it, but I'm sure it can be shot.
I thought it would have been more than 35#'s, It seems to be thick enough.
