Title: Widow PCH
Post by: MCS on September 14, 2010, 05:19:00 PM
I would like to order a new PCH, I just can't make up my mind as to what woods to go with.  Can you guys help me in deciding what woods work well together and what combination makes for a beautiful bow?  I am leaning towards the Honduras Rosewood but I'm not sure.  If you have pictures please post them.

Thanks,
Mike

I just ordered a new psax 4 weeks ago in kingwood. I also had a hard time picking out wood colors, but i kept coming back to the kingwood   :campfire:

Mike, I have a honduras rosewood psa at 60". The camera I took pictures with was not set up correctly so the resized pics are not that clear. I can email the originals to you if you like..... RAY

I would do the Rosewood riser with either Curly Maple or Tan/Black Tiger Myrtle limbs.
