Who has an Arroyo?
« on: January 25, 2009, 09:16:00 AM »
I know sometime ago some of you have posted your RER Arroyo'S and after seeing "Whip's" post on Kevin and Sue's shop I would really like to see some different wood choices that you may have  and would like to share...If you have pics of the limbs and tips in action that would be a plus...I am very partial to the Bocote and Zircote woods but any pics would be appreciated...I hope I can post this here on the POW WOW but if not could someone direct me to where please? Thanks and God Bless, Keefers <")))><

You should get some good responses here Keith.  When it comes to looking at wood choices though don't limit yourself to just Arroyo pics.  Any of the woods that you might like the looks of in other bows can be used in building an Arroyo.  :thumbsup:

These are father and son Arroyo's.  They are not finished -- still with Kevin and Sue doing the finishing up touches.  

I am big on Osage.  Right one is all Osage and left is Osage and Waterfall Bubinga -- love the way Kevin and Sue do the fades.

Here some pics of my 54" Arroyo. Riser is Bocote with two thin Cocobolo Arches. Limbs are Birds-Eye Bocote.
This one Kevin even cut the riser into the correct side of the riser (lefty) ;)

 
 
 

Here are pics of the 60" Arroyo I sold last year, Riser is Cocobolo and Maccassar Ebony, limbs are Maccassar Ebony.

Keefer,

I have a 60" Arroyo. Made of Diamond Wood. Pretty pretty bow.

Kevin and Sue are masters of the trade.

I am shooting a 58" Arroyo 46 @28 smooth,quiet and quick and the craftmanship is outstanding. Great customer service before and after the sale.
