I made this bow earlier this year, Hunted with it most of this years deer season, I like to use a tennis raquet grip since it's so hot here in Florida during bow season.. riser is made of Dymalux, "Kodiak Solid" color   (http://i596.photobucket.com/albums/tt46/Robertfishes/bow10done1.jpg)  (http://i596.photobucket.com/albums/tt46/Robertfishes/kwiklok.jpg)

So far I like what I'm seeing.Those are beautiful bows. The ebony under glass looks great.I was wondering how dark it would look as a limb veneer.Thanks for posting pics.

Why must I always look at these threads? It makes me want to become a trad bow junkie, which is not a good idea on a college student's budget...  :banghead:    :banghead:

Just had a chance to check out the new pics.I think the ebony has become my favorite wood.The bows are all stunning.Bocote,ebony - zebra,ebony - cocobolo,ebony - all ebony so many choices.

Some guys hate to use Mekassar Ebony in bows.It is so gorgous it is one of my favorite woods.It goes so well with nearly any other wood.
