Thanks guys.  I love Silvertips, and I really love Paul’s originals and always stay on the hunt for them, but they are very hard to find.  Guy, I received an email from Beth yesterday that said Dave was finishing up my newest build and it should ship early next week.  Can’t wait!

I don’t think Dave has any more of the camo material.

My main wood is Gabon Ebony because it is a high mass wood very nice and dense I think the black match’s with all the other timbers. I simply don’t like 2 different, otherwise great looking woods,matched together with great personality but of different color like the combination Bocote and Cocobolo. They are great looking woods by themselves but simply they don’t match well to me IMHO. When they are enhanced when used with the black Gabon. So this Particular bow has a combination of Black and White Ebony and Gabon.

Lefties are the only ones who hold the bow in the right hand.

Cacciatore,

I do to love Gabon Ebony... I’ll have to get it included in my next bow... it’s a great contrast between any other lighter coloured timbers...

Very nice bow David, I’d say it looks similar to the Silvertip I’m getting... :goldtooth:
