Limb veneers for a Bubinga riser

[Tradcat]

OK gang...give me your opinions on which limb veneers would be a great match for a Bubinga riser.  Thanks

[shedhunta]

Green glass would be my choice.

I think zebrawood and waterfall ash looks good with a bubinga riser.Bubinga is a solid riser wood but doesn't have a lot of figure in it.I have a couple of bows with a bubinga riser.

Go to the classifieds and look at the Robertson that Lowrider has for sale .  It is bubinga with juniper limbs I think it is outstanding almost bought it two times already .  I think it works good together

Waterfall Bubinga.  Spalted Maple.  Red Zebrawood.  Tulipwood.  Redwood Burl.  

to name a few

I think Nineworlds list is very good.I don't think you want something dark with Bubinga.

The Juniper listed above would also be nice, Red ceder,Koa or maybe a lighter colored Myrtle or nice Maple like Curly Maple or Quilted maple.

You might even consider a stain on something like a figured maple that matches the riser woods color closely.

I had a Blacktail with Waterfall Bubinga veneers and Bubinga riser that was very sharp

I made this bubinga riser longbow 3 years ago..I used figured Bubinga veneers. Alot of people thought it was a good combo..

I like Zebrawood veneers with a Bubinga riser. A prime example would be the Martin Savannah. My 21st Lonestar has Black Cherry veneers with Bubinga riser. It doesn't look too shabby either.

Agree with Chuck on the  Waterfall Bubinga, but green glass would be my 1st choice like Gary said.

I'm a sucker for myrtle. Some light figured myrtle would look fantastic with bubinga.
Here is some myrtle Mr Toelke is using on a new bow for this guy.

Throw some black accents in riser and bocote veneers in limbs!  Gorgeous!
