I'm sorry I can't do pictures.
However, I would like to comment. Dark wood on bows or guns for that matter is awesome. I have a Bolivian Rosewood that's gorgeous. My last acquisition was Cocobola. Love those dark woods!

That looks a lot like a Blacktail, both appearance wise and quality wise...incredible craftsmanship and great materials choices

Shuwee, beautiful bows guys!

I think dark bows are ideal for my hunting situations usually. I tuck myself into the shadow and dark bows aren't detected when moving as well as a lighter one would.

Coco and Walnut

   

I really like dark Bocote

   

Wenge is a great dark option also

   

Matching your background is key dark or light in a hunting rig

Wow, that bow looks awesome. It takes some pretty amazing craftsmanship to be mistaken for a blacktail!

I thought it was a Blacktail until re-reading the original post!  
Beautiful bow.

Thanks guys . Kentuckytj I agree with you on matching your back ground. Your canebrake skinned limbs are killer. I might just have to come up with a pair of those myself.
