I'm not up on BW lingo.....what the 'X' style???

[TimDougan]

Terry the X is for exotic woods. Kingwood, bocote,osage,and so on. TD.

[Blackhawk]

I was going to say "X" means "Crossbow", but thought you might     me.

Yes, X means exotic or custom wood, not their standard "plywood" as some refer to it.

[Terry Green]

Thanks!!!

OK Blackhawk.....I've backed off 'The Button'.    

[Gooserbat]

I shot one of the prototypes about a year ago while I was at the widow factory.  If a guy likes a short riser with a small sight window then this is the widow for you.  Basicaly a PSA minus abiout a 1 1/2" in the riser.

I liked it!

Just curious..

Why is osage considered an exotic wood?

[Benny Nganabbarru]

I've never seen any osage, so it's pretty exotic to me!

Black Widow's base model bows are, I think, stained actionwood or maple or something (please correct me if I'm wrong).

Their mid-range bows have an "ironwood" riser and stained, vertically-stacked bamboo (is that a term for "lamboo"?) limbs.

Their top-of-the-range bows have a riser of any exotic wood on offer, and veneers of that or other timber over the vertically-stacked bamboo limbs, except in the case of osage bows, which don't utilise any bamboo, just the osage (and glass / carbon).
