I have a silvertip being made right now with highly figured yew limbs and cocobolo riser.
This is what it looked like when I sent it, waiting for its return.....a couple of weeks!

I really like bocote, curly koa and tulipwood combined with cocobolo also.

Just herniated two disks in my back, so I wont be shooting it. So I hope it looks good!

Chad Holm made me an Osprey with a cocobolo riser with an Osage "I" beam and Tamo Ash lams.....really nice!

Cocobolo and bacote gets too "busy."

As someone above said coco with yew, osage or bamboo is the way to go.
