Thank you Jacob.   My son did the wood combination.
My bow is zebra with purple heart.  With birdseye maple limbs.  Here is a shot of my riseer with my sons limbs. He has two different sets one cocobola the other bocote.

I don't have that exact combo but I've become partial to zebra wood and macassar ebony. Got one coming and here's my Marriah Thermal with it...
