Vic, here is a Ziricote riser. So what are you ordering now??

By the way, your string is in the mail.

Man I love this site. A simple question and bam we are looking at some of the greatest craftsmanship available right at our computer desk.

Zmonster tell me about the vastly different length ACS risers, I am guessing a 16 inch and a 12 inch.
My ACS bow is a switch riser bow with a 16 inch ST left hander made with zebrawood and a 14 inch ST right hander made with grey dymondwood. I notice you prefer the RC style.

A.S. I thought my lh bow made by Jon Gharing was the ulimate in lefties, guess I was wrong. Who made that stunning bow for you?

Predator man, that finger groove overlay is to die for. Did you shoot the gemsbok? My friends have now made two trips to Africa, albeit with compounds.

No, never hunted Africa, and have no desire any more. There is lots of game here in North America that I still have to hunt.

Myrtle and Bolivian Rosewood

Myrtle and cocobola....

Tree Killer, beautiful bow. Bolivian rosewood and myrtle were the wood choices for my new Blacktail as well. I'm thinking that drooling over pics of your bow just might help get me through the long wait. :D

JL, that myrtle & cocobolo combo is sweet as well.

Zircote!

Thanks guys, I think I'm starting to narrow my wood choices. Allen, I ordered one of Big Jims Buffalo bows.

Rooselk...that's actually my son's bow I gave him last spring for his high school graduation. I love the contrasting woods though! The limbs are myrtle with Bolivian Rosewood on the tips.

Lowebow, what woods do you have there?

A.S. · February 25, 2011, 06:43:00 AM

Vic, I believe that one is zircote with myrtle limbs. The same combo as the one I posted pics of.

I look forward to seeing your new Big Jim bow!

Joe VT and Hogdancer, I pray you guys have fireproof bow rooms. You have some of the best looking bows ever made.
