color scheme help
« on: October 07, 2011, 09:33:00 PM »
Hey guys I'm going next week to talk with the bowyer about getting my first custom hybrid long bow started.  I thought I new what kinda wood I wanted and now I'm not sure.  Please post your bows.  My first choice was somekind of grey laminate, charcoal diamond, with a thin walnut or brown wood down the center.  Then I saw the camo laminate on a encore stock and wondered what that would look like as a riser.  Lets see yours!
Do or do not.  There is no try.

There are a number of dymond wood colors to choose from.  I found this color spec pic online.

I like the darker, reddish woods myself, cocobolo, or  rosewood with a lighter limb veneer like curly maple or zebra wood  with a darker or phenolic accent thru the riser.
