Bumping this up in case there are any new ones I can look at while I wait on mine.

Here's a couple.   Two copperhead bows.   One in cocobolo and Osage with Copperhead skins.   The other with tulipwood and Osage with Copperhead skins.   I first approached Ken Beck about putting snakeskins on a bow at Cloverdale in 2004.   He said they'd never done it and said he would have to do a prototype first.   So Roger Fulton sent me a picture of an Osage bow with Diamondback skins on it.   He said "Ready when you are" so I put in a order for the cocobolo one first.   This is the first snakeskin bow ever sold by Black Widow.  Then I ordered the tulipwood a few months later.   I had him do some special artwork, naming each now as "Copperhead Special #1" and "Copperhead Special #2".   He said drawing the snakes on the limbs was the worst job in the world and if anyone today asked him to do it again, he would shoot them dead first, then tell them "No!"

Here's an old Black Widow "Stalker" model that was simply sold as a painted black bow.   I bought it for a song and sent it out to be dipped in "Predator" camo.   Its my primary hunting bow.   If you lean it against a tree in the woods, you won't find it.

And s Bocote bow.   It pulls 30# @ 30" and was the bow I had built to shoot while recovering from spinal surgery.   I'm currently having a set of 40# limbs built for it.

Bocote PMAX, black fiberglass nose, no red, Bocote wedges. I asked them to pick out some nice figured lams, they did good  :biglaugh:

Had this made when I saw the camo. Not really a camo fan on bows but this called to me. Each red stripe represents a platoon mate who never came home. It's the least I could due to honor their memory

I received these 2 PLX's a short time ago.

I've owned a fair number of nice Widows, sold most but still have pics of some of them and still have a few. Here is a rare one that I still own, the only bow that I ever bought twice, Ron's Crown Jewel.
Lefties are the only ones who hold the bow in the right hand.

Got my new widow PMA about 3 weeks ago.  Debated over what wood to choose, but in the end went with the g10 and carbon.  Definitely a non trad/high tech look.

Some great looking bows!  Here's my one and only BW—a TD Camo PLX

MnFn

I think I've had four or five Black Widow bows. I had a PLX in black and white Ebony- that was a looker.

This is the only one I currently have. Osage Orange and Cocobolo riser with Osage Veneers.
PFT 58", 52@ 28".

Otto, I think those copperhead skins would look great on this bow.
