Very nice bow! I like the bend to it, as well as the paint job. How much mass does it have? It looks quite large but you say it's light... You've done well to leave it fat then, had you applied the measures used for an osage bow you would have wound up with a real wimp.  :P
Well done.

Don't shoot!

I have read many more negatives about cherry than positives, I think you could change many minds with that bow. Great job.

thank you all! it really is great to have access to a resource like this. as for the mass, im not sure, as i dont have a metric scale :( i shall have to acquire one. that arrowhead, believe it or not, is only 135 grains! i use it for small game ;) its made out of handsaw steel, so its light and resilient, but does a lot of damage.
