The hinge is between the 2 knots that are stiffer than the rest of the stave. If you checked the thickness at the hinge you will probably see it is thinner there than outside of the knots. How much is the rest of the bow bending? Maybe reduce the limb thickness on both limbs gradually and don't pull the bow so the hinge bends anymore.
Will you post a pic of the front profile?

I'd be interested in any input you get.

Very Nice. Nice deer. She will eat good as well

Folks, an Executive Decision was made this evening.

The Byron Ferguson Memorial Shoot has been renamed!

It will be called Byron Ferguson's "Become the Arrow Classic".

I LIKE IT FOLKS!!!

Not exactly, the girth hitch doesn't have a loop on the tag end so not sure what good it does.  It's got a hook and a buckle that can connect to each other but the tag ends needs a loop.   I can connect directly to it with the hook and buckle on the saddle itself but then it's only like a lineman loop at that point.  Give it any slack (stop leaning away from the tree) and it falls down the trunk.

Cut it in half and you'll get two good tomato stakes...
