This piece of osage had some natural reflex in the middle of the limb on the left and a big hump about 6" from the fade on the right limb. I thought it looked ok(not great) and wanted to get some other opinions. What do yall think?
Here it is at 26" draw.

It looks very good. How long is it? Are you done at 26"? Jawge

Thanks George. Its 70". I had to make it a little longer than I wanted to get the string to line up because of the side to side wiggles. No I'm not done, my draw is around 28.5". Its hittin 52# at 26" and I wanted to get some other opinions before I went any further. Oh yeah and I was ready to take a break.

Pretty good so far.  I'd stay away from that left tip for good, though.  It's approaching a whip tiller.  I'd scrap the outer half of that right limb and get it caught up with the left as well as get both limbs bendy just a touch more at the fades.   :)
