Purple Heart is one of my favorites.  I have a decked out Bighorn with PH.  Love it.

Doesn't Purpleheart darken with age like osage? I wonder if there is a sealer that would prevent that.
 That is a beautiful wood combo and makes a beautiful bow, Tenbrook.

Thanks Pat!

Yes it does darken with age.  

I was JUST thinking the same thing...To have a sealer with some UV protection that would allow the wood to keep its color would be great.    :thumbsup:

Looks like yew cores, that color and purpleheart are a perfect complement. they really frame and set the riser off. Great work.
God bless, Steve
