I would like to see pics of your Pine Cone risers. Im thinking of having my Cheyenne riser done.
I am interested in half Pine Cones. And I'm interested in hearing your opinions on whether you like them or not. thx

Man! That is a fine looking piece of craftsmanship right there.
I had the full pine cones on both of my Morrisons,I really liked them alot. It made my hand a little bit sore at first for a day of so then it never bothered me after that, they are great with a glove on. I would highly recommend them.Forgot to mention he does a great job on them and they also look great!

I'm very interested to hear these comments as well. Thanks.
Here's mine. My thoughts on the performance of this type checkering over a conventional criss-cross pattern is the Cheyenne riser is so balanced up/down and left/right when drawn there is no real benefit to the checkering other than for cosmetic reasons. I have other bows which need checkering when I wear a winter glove to hunt with to keep my hand from sliding on the draw but with the Morrisons I really don't think its necessary.

I have some on my Shawnee. I can't really say either way as to whether it is better or not. The riser that I bought happened to have them, but I wouldn't pay extra if I were to order a new one. They look cool, but I probably prefer a leather grip myself.

I don't have a pic,but the used Morrison I have has a half cone. I like it,and it does not seem to be a problem in any way. Makes the bow kinda unique!
I really like those pine cones,but mine is plain and I must say that with Bob's handle you have a good grip also with bloves.
man they do look cool !!! thanks!!!
Beautiful, aren't they?

I agree i think the pine cone does more asthetically than it does functionally, i have the full pine cones on a riser very similar to yours, i love everything about the bow its my go to set up
This was an in-stock riser. I had Bob put the half-cone on. Not necessary, but nice.

Killdeer,
Very beautiful riser - and pine cone! What is that wood combo? Ebony of some sort? I like that little design at the top in the throat. Mine is not quite like that.
