Justin Snyder:
Well Chris, do you want the good news or the bad news?  The good news is I am learning a ton about yew.  The bad news is we are starting over again.  I heat treated the limb and started tillering it.  It started to take a lot of set on the same limb again.  It had a little natural deflex there, and it just seemed to want to build on it.  I decided to heat that area again and add a little extra reflex to that spot to compensate.  Well I might have put a little to much pressure on it, and KABOOM.  I think the third time is the charm.   ;D We will get there, eventually.   Justin

Pat B:
EVERYONE RUN and hide your yew and kids. Justin is tillering again :o   Justin, you might want to try ironwood! ;D    Pat

Justin Snyder:
Pat, does that mean you are mailing me a piece?  ;D I would tell you to cover your ears too, but I get so mad I cant make a sound.  Think of it this way.  With every bow you break you learn something.  Pretty soon I will know EVERYTHING.  ;) Justin
