Not sure.  A clear pic of back and belly would tell me for sure.  Might want to give OP back his thread and take it to another, though.

Thanks Buemaker, and yes the wrapping isn't doing anything structurally...
the bow just looked a little naked to me without it...

I took the bow to the local archery shop today....

Its only 32lbs! which is a little annoying, but hey....   ....next one i guess...

At 32lbs it shoots a 460 grain arrow 155-160 FPS.
quite good for how nice and easy it is to draw!!

Jacob
She looks awesome. Congrats to you. A bow at 32# and a speed of 155 + bet the draw curve looks sweet. At 32#s do you feel a let off at around 26"? The last horn bow I made was 31# 49" N2N. It is the first bow that felt like it had a let off between 27"-30" At 33" it felt good.
