  Allen, I bought it in the clear doug fir section which is supposed to be kiln dried but I am doubting the dryness.

Steve,
It seems like you have an exceptional board there!  If you get a chance, can you create a straight dowel from it and do a spine/deflection test on it?  If it is truly exceptional in stiffness, then it has the potential to add much more distance to your shots as arrows rather than a bow.

Alan I was joking but it would be cool to make arrows and  a bow from the same piece of wood.

That would be funny!

Steve,
There is always the option to set the oven to 375 and bake a few few pieces for 15-20 minutes. May need to bind the blanks to something straight to keep them from curling up.
