Thanks. I made some progress the past few days. Getting ready to post the pictures. I went out scouting the past few weekends and my favorite spot has gotten popular so I need to find another spot. There is a prairie/ marsh area not far that's about 2800 acres. I'm going to scout that tommorow night and see what it looks like.

Well here we are. Not perfect but I'm committed to finishing the bow no matter how perfect or imperfect it turns out.
 I filled the belly and side cracks with CA glue. The belly crack is right near the nock area which worries me a little. I have the belly a rounded profile and and the floor tiller looks pretty good so I'm doing a few rounds of glue and then I'll work on the handle and tillering. The one side of the handle I ran out of material so I'm going to sort of finish it with it's imprefections and see how it turns out.

I like your commitment and wish you the best.  It’s lookin like a bow to me.  Some good advise on here and I think you should be ok in the end.  I’ve had worse as I’m sure others here have had and still turn out to be fine bows.  Anyway I like your attitude with it.  We must prevail and forge ahead.  I’m following this one to the finish line!   

Muskyman:
Looking much better than I had anticipated to be honest. .good job so far.
