I'm thinking of my custom order with Myrtle Veneers, I'm wondering about Riser Woods either natural or Dymond wood?

Any Pics?  I know Myrtle as all veneers can vary from light to dark...

Thank you

I love Macassar Ebony with Myrtle veneers....AWESOME combo!

I like Walnut,Cocobolo,Bocote,Ebony or even Myrtle.
Here is a Myrtle limb with a walnut riser with Yew and Myrtle accents.

Any dark wood will look good with myrtlewood.

Here is myrtle with cocobolo riser.  I think Ragnarok is correct - any dark wood will look great with myrtle.

I am amazed at how different this myrtle is from Idaho Curt's

This one is myrtle veneers, kingwood and gaboon ebony riser.
 
 

 

Here's my Tall Tines with Myrtle limbs. I have a Tall Tines longbow on order with a Macasser ebony riser and darker Myrtle limbs.

Here is Myrtle with Micarta riser.  Ebony would look similar.

I like a Myrtle/Bocote TallTines


 

Solid Phenolic and Macassar Ebony work too.

 

Dick Robertson has some nice looking Myrtel on some of his bows - his website is easy to find.

Love myrtle veneers  with a bocote and dark walnut riser. I agree with Clay also dark woods look the best. Don

The myrtle onj that Tall Tines is to die for. I have two gunstock blanks I bought 30 years ago that are like that but I can't stand the thought of cutting them up.

Who would have thought Myrtle was that beautiful?

I can't wait to see Ethel.

I have myrtle venners are the belly of my bow and it looks great with the brown actionwood riser, and bubinga and leopardwood accents. Not as figured as IdahaCurts myrtle, it is more a creamy yellow and mottled brown.

I'm having a Silvertip TD Recurve made with Macassar flares in a rosewood dym. riser and myrtle (from Idahocurt)veneers.

I have (below) a Blacktail Elite VL (1-piece) with a myrtle footed Cocobolo riser and the same combon (coco and myrtle) limb veneers.

The riser on my Tall tines is macasser, the limbs on the right are myrtle.

The limbs on this Blacktail are highly figured myrtlewood. Very hard to find.

Heres is some Cocobolo with the Myrtle burl....

I have a Toelke Whip that has Myrtle veneers with a Bacote riser.  I also have a Robertson Vision Falcon with Myrtle veneers and a ebony riser.  Both look great and with the various colorations of Myrtle many different woods will match quite well.

Black Widow Tiger Myrtle PLX......so sick! I can post pics if anyone wants to see them.
