I searched various websites and I am trying to identify this would because it is so beautiful and would look amazing on any bow:

I'm gonna guess myrtle.  Is that a Fox bow?

I'm not sure I think I found this pic on the Kalamazoo picture thread but I can't remember!

Myrtle is my favorite limb veneer.  Check out Blacktail, Caribow, Robertson and Hunter Bows websites for some nice Myrtle.  I am sure there are others too.  Last week I finally received a Blacktail with light myrtle veneers-very nice and I am going to put an order in soon for another set of limbs that have more figure like your picture.  That myrtle is awesome.
To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target

I am going to have to go along with the myrtle trend, looks great.

Looks like that pic was taken at the "Fox" booth and I have a Fox Royal Crown with that same combo..My Myrtle isn't quite as dark but looks awesome...Great shooting bow by the way..

I have a couple bows with Mrytle burl that looks like this; Silvertip and Widow PCH. Of course there are other Myrtle looks as well-- tiger myrtle, light and dark.  It is also one of my favorite limb veneers.

That picture looks very familiar   ;)  

That was in fact one of the bows Ron King of Fox bows had on his table at the K-Zoo expo (I think his Maverick recurve model). If I remember correctly, when I took the picture Ron told me it was myrtle burl.
