Help with heat corrections on osage. /. Updated
Selfbowman:
Guessing I wold say what ever caused the snake at that point caused the growth ring difference. But I’ve not noticed it before either. Also on snake bows Ive noticed that when the snake comes toward the bowyer when on the tillering board it makes the limb look stiff in that area . Optical illusion so to speak.

Thanks for giving me the confidence to reheat the same areas multiple times. Really seemed to work with no noticeable side effects at this point. Here are some photos of the swirling twisted grain just below center of stave, and the growth rings at both tips. Not the best photos but hopefully they show decent.

Finally purchased a couple of prai rattlers skins to finish this one out. I need to put a couple more coats of Truoil on it and a leather handle wrap, and she’ll be ready to shoot some 3d. Thanks for all the advice/help.

That looks really good to me, very nice job. ;)
