English yew self bow. Sapwood back and heartwood belly. The perfect bow wood that is NOT laminated.
Fox Triple Crown Carbon. Yew and bamboo limb core, carbon backed and a yew veneer over the carbon. Yew accent stripe through the incredible colored Zebrawood riser. Gorgeous:

Thinking about wood combos?
:bigsmyl:
Uh huh :jumper:
I have two bows made by Marc Moriez of Chek-Mate with yew limbs...the fact is yew makes great laminated bow limbs by itself...I have often argued that core material on a glass bow is relatively unimportant and yet I really do like shooting yew the best...I just got the capability to post pictures again yesterday and I will try to get some done this weekend...the riser on my Beaver Creek is some very nice fiddleback or curly walnut that I supplied and the riser on my Hunter III is, as far as I know, bubinga and rosewood with maple stripes...I think they make great combinations

Your basic HHA Redman, yew limbs and a chechen riser. My favorite.

Yew is Beautiful.
Two Super D's. One was a few years old and had reached a honey brown and the other is new. Both yew.

My beautiful highly figured Super D. Sorry I don't have a good picture. Pictures don't do this bow justice. Yew can be beautiful as well as functional. It's also the top one on the first picture.

I hope there's some nice yew right here.

Just a phone pic, but you get the idea.
Liberty English, 66" 60@28.
All yew limbs with coco riser. Great shooter and way faster than a D bow should be.

Enablers...... Was really getting my mind wrapped around the idea of a quilted or tiger maple bow..... And now :) )
Brazilian rosewood riser and yew belly
