I have an "Ace" recurve that Brandon Stahl was so very kind to build me for his 2015 Bow drawing.
I chose Bocote as the main riser wood with a  Mac. Ebony I beam and black limbs. The Mac. Ebony really looks awesome as an "I" beam against the Bocote.
I'll see if my good friend 1/4 Away can post a few pics of the "Ace" for me from my iPhone so hang in there.   :jumper:
