I'm framing for a new window in an existing wall, and the left king stud bows out slightly. How can I fix this? My current plan is to place the new (straight) jack stud against the king stud, and add a shim between the two where I'm nailing them together to keep the jack stud straight. This would result in a small gap between the king stud and the jack stud, but otherwise both pieces should continue to function as expected. See the picture below for the king stud, I added a straight red line to make the bowing more obvious.
