Very nice bow. I like the cherry bark accent but the whole package is spot on. Tell your wife(does she have a name?) congratulations.  8)

That's a really nice bow, I to like the cherry backing.  What I like even more is that she named it after her grandpa! That is awesome!

her names Olivia, and she is for sure bit by the bug as well.
Its pretty fun sharing the hobby with her, but we'll need a bigger shop soon!
her first bow is an old growth yew longbow, named after her other grandpa Fred.
both were loggers and lovers of wood, and both would of loved to see her take after them I'm sure.
cheers!
