Yes Macassar have been my favourite timber for years now and is in lots of my bows... I’ve just placed an order for a recurve with Gabon and Bacote... :bigsmyl:

Killer combination, Bocote has a very nice character and contrast so it can matches only with a neutral wood, Black is perfect

Wow Joe! What are the woods on yours?

I own one and it's an original by Paul. I'll try and find some pics of it and post. I love Silvertips, may have to start saving my pennies for a new one...

That Cocobolo of Joes is the best looking wood on the planet.  I think I would have bows built of that every year if I could find that quality.  never get tired of looking at it.  Thanks for sharing Joe..

Thank you guys.....hard to believe someone let this go. I bought it used about 9 years ago.


As mentioned the riser is Cocobolo,and the limb veneers are Elm burl.  58" 50# @28"  Its built for non stretch string but I have a B50 endless string on it.
