awesome job... I have a log that will yield about the same, but they are few and far between.  I will be watching for sure.  I had planned to use just the sapwood for bows, and sinew backed at that... I love the heartwood, but haven't had any luck with it, even when backed.  I'm watching and learning...thanks.

If you have a cut log now, I recommend you split and debark it right away.  Bugs like to get under the bark.  It’ll dry pretty quickly, so seal the ends.
