Nice job Dlamb, Have you gotten a chance to shoot it yet? I would be careful with the Cherry. I have'nt seen or heard of too many in cherry that hold to gether to well but thats just me.  Danny

Nice bow, good to see more people coming to the craft.
Yes, the cherry will have to be backed to make a safe bow. But I've heard that if it's tension safe, it'll make a good bow.
