Beautiful, and the color will just deepen with age on both. IF I should ever order another bow, that would be on my short list of wood combos.

One of my favorite longbow combos.  Yew is an outstanding limb wood for bowyers who know how to take advantage of it;  cocobolo is dense enough to make even a small longbow riser stable but not too heavy.  

Very nice!
