Thenks for the build along. I am very new to all of this and appreciate the post. I've tried my first hickory board bow and followed your instructions as best as I could. I had what I thought was a nice quick shooting bow at around 40# but after about a few dozen arrows I could hear popping in the limbs. Thinking it was about to either explode or lift a splinter, I stopped shooting. I noticed that you didn't scrape the back to "chase the ring" . Is this not required on a board bow? I've built a few maple sapling bows and while they are very light in draw weight, I didn't have to chase the ring. I would appreciate your comments. thanks again.
