From what little I know about warbows, that tiller look pretty dang good.  So what if it is 45#, fun shooting.  The bow I'm working on now, not a warbow, I'm wanting it to be around 45#.

ya i got it at 45# @25" i am already thinking about the next one and am looking for a good yew staff now that i learned a lot off this project

I'm sure you did learn a lot.  You also did a fine job tillering the bow out.
Keep it flexible
