I am ordering a new 3 piece longbow soon. I know I want black walnut limbs and in riser. What looks good with walnut? Pics please. Thank you.

How about osage and walnut riser?

Birdseye maple?

Bocote

I love fresh osage with it but it loses the contrast as it darkens.  Maple would be a good bet I think.  Try to get walnut with some swirly sapwood if you can - provided you like the looks of that cream color. Good luck and enjoy it!

KOA

I second Maple, birds eye or one of the others (spackled, etc)

Myrtle and walnut are two of my favorites.

Osage, Yew, light Koa, lighter Bacote, even bamboo can look good with walnut.

How bout American and Red Elm?

Olive burl.  The dark grain found in the olive matches walnut very well.

Cherry

Anything!  Love walnut.  A matching knife handle also looks good!  

I got actionwood with my walnut I love the contrast of patterns of the wood. I has a great camo effect.

That myrtle looks killer too!

Osage, maple, especially figured, and cherry just naturally go with walnut.  Bob

I have a GN Critter Gitter with Walnut limbs and an Oak riser and tips, very classy look.

Osage does fade I wonder if yellowheart will keep its color better if you like the yellow contrast.

Walnut, Myrtle, black glass
