I built this bow to celebrate 30 years of bowhunting whitetails. 64" 70 lbs @ 31" I veneered .020" bocote over red elm for limbs. Riser is cocobolo and bocote with osage accent stripes .......Hard to beat bocote! As this bow aged it got darker. Quiver home made....yeah that's a leatherman tool on it......It's fun to catch dapple sunlight on a exotic hardwood bow as you wait in your stand or as you stalk along. One of life's simple pleasures.......

We're gonna have to see what BIGJIM can come up with because I've got a bow do in a couple weeks and you guys have helped me make my decision. The bow will be ALL BACOTE with Black Phenolic accents.

I REALLY like the looks of the darker bacote.

The lighter yellow/black is nice too...actually more striking.

There's just something about the brown/dk tan and black that revs my engine.

Great pics everyone!
