Yew ELB tiller advice needed

(1/2) > >>

backtowood B2W:
FD pic is 51#@ 26" draw. Actually 27.5" measured from the back of the bow. 73"ntn. 76.5"ttt.
The very nice stave had about 1.8" deflex, it didn't took any set or stringfollw yet, but I want it to bring to 60#@30" draw length. So not much scraping is to do. But I don't mind if it gets to 55#.
I´m always struggling with this long asymmetric ones, and thought I´d better ask.
(It´s my first yew self bow and ELB as well)

Thanks!

My quick beginners advice: a few scrapes the outer 1/3rds maybe not wrong? More on the upper...later then maybe another few scrapes in the middle. But let's hear the pro's advice first...cheers

Del the cat:
Both limbs are V good, but the lower is a bit stiffer... yes the lower generally should be, but it looks just a little too stiff in comparison to my eye. So I'd say scrapes off out of lower limb, but it's pretty damn good :)
Two identical ellipses centred above and below the hand to show the difference in limbs.

backtowood B2W:
