Badger:
   As much as you worked it I don't think it will deteriorate much at all. An ideal flight bow reaches full draw the very first time on the scales before the shooting takes place. In the case of an unlimited weight class bow I might tiller it 4 or 5" short of full draw and the first full draw it ever hits will be on the shooting line.

PatM:
Here's an old thread on Paleoplanet where we were discussing the idea you have going here.  The idea being to sneak up on this theoretical design.  Sorry it's full of math and graphs.

Now I have to babysit my grandson. It was a very small splinter. I've Ca'd it. Just the wood between two growth rings about 1/16" wide. Little cloud of dust. Crap.
