The kiss of death, I guess

Muskyman:
To late Pat 😁. I figured what the heck. I’ll post some pictures in a bit. Basically I took it out to the shop and started working on it with a scraper and a sander and in a few minutes it was gone. I put oil on it to try and highlight it and it’s gone.. haven’t had it on the tree yet to see what the tiller is doing but that’s coming. I’m going to try and flip the tips and hopefully gain a little draw weight and try and match the other limb up with the one with the issue and see what happens.

Muskyman:
Okay, time for show and tell.   I’ll post pictures
I started scraping and sanding slowly and could see it going away. I didn’t take a lot off before it seemed to be gone. Once it was gone gone to the naked eye I put some oil on it and couldn’t see any sign of it. Put it on my tree with a long string and pulled it to about brace height.

Muskyman:
Here it is with one limb flipped
I’ll give it a few hours and then do the other limb

Muskyman:
Limb number 2

Good save.  Looks like it was pretty shallow.  I think you can still get something in your weight with this one.
