Title: Show me your cocobolo / yew bows please!
Post by: Bellasm on March 01, 2015, 03:51:00 PM
I am looking to order a PSAX Widow with cocobolo riser and yew limbs. I am having an extremely hard time as coco comes in so many shades and colors. I am looking for the perfect combo. So feel free to show me pics of your coco/yew combo, thanks in advance.

Wish I could  unable to post pictures here.

I have a Wes Wallace Mentor  Cocobolo riser and Yew limbs beautiful bow.

One thing to keep in mind Cocobolo will darken with age

Depending on the grain and color of Bocote the bow maker has on hand, this could be a nice combo as well. The lighter amber/yellow in Bocote mixes well with the yew color. IMHO.

Sorry, did not mean to post all those. Was trying to select a couple and things took off.
My computer is too old!

I don't think anyone has a problem with too many pics, lol. Nice Tip, do you still have it?

I love TX Rat Snake skins.  Tough to find.  I was looking for a set for Dave to put on my 1 pc I had refinished.
