Here's my brother's bow, the riser is Macasser Ebony and Oregon Myrtle with Bubinga accents. It has sheep horn on the face and limb tips. The limbs will be Red Elm cores with Tiger Myrtle veneers from IdahoCurt. Finished product, I HOPE, will be a 64" recurve around 48 - 52#. Tony

Nice wood selection,the horn really looks good.
That limb design looks like it will smoke an arrow,
kinda reminds of the Dryad Orion RC.
