PLX Wood Combination
« on: March 10, 2011, 02:39:00 PM »
Ordered a PLX with Osage limb and orange cocobolo riser yesterday.

Just wondering anyone may have additional ideas to make it look better before BW starts making it.....

I think it would look better in Oklahoma than in Texas.  I can PM you my address if you feel the same.   :thumbsup:  

Seriously though, I have an aversion to red in a bow, so I would only get the black in that one, would really set off against the osage and orange coco.  Might get them to do the riser overlay with black and orange coco also.

I agree with crash, no red, go all black. But that is just what I like.

Crash,

It is not going to OK for sure...Ha..Ha..
The Orange coco only goes to the wood portion of the riser.  The black and red stripe still there..

Go with an Osage and Cocobolo limb.  Use Osage on the belly and Cocobolo on the face.  My PSAX is like that.

I just got my cocobolo and yew PLX, great bow.  The only thing I changed from normal was the overlays on the nose of the riser.  It is normally black on red, and I had them change it to cocobolo on black.  I really like the look better and think it would look great on your bow.  Check it out...Mike

Your bow looks really really beautiful..

I just called Roger and get him to change the overlay like yours with orange coco over black..

Thank you very much...
