Yep, have someone narrow the tips and cut new string grooves with new overlays and you'll have a new bow, with a familiar feel.

I concur with reworking it. The weight will increase, but it will still be a good bow with a familiar feel. It won't cost much, either.

Any good two-part epoxy will work for the overlays. I've cut off tips like that and reworked string nocks. The hardest part will be the overlays, but I have three hands 8^).

Mike at Maddog did an awesome job repairing one of my bows. Great fast service at a very good price!
