I've been meaning to post some pics of my Blacktail recurve I received this spring after a well-worth-it thirteen month wait. The riser is cocobolo with footed ebony and yew limbs.

Damn, that's a piece of top class toy.
Also, picked up a Cascade Mountain Skookum longbow here a couple of years back. It needed some work so I finally got around to sending it to Bowdoc:

I really like the first one, I must say. Can't wait to get mine. All ebony riser + ebony siyahs. Definetely one of my favorite woods.
Love the Blacktail Bows!!! She's a beauty. Norm picked a great piece of cocobola for your bow. You shouldn't have kept it from us this long though....haha I just got one this Monday and still can't believe it's mine.
Man he makes a purdy bow.
I guess I should post one that shows the limbs:
