New to me Morrison Shawnee... Name the woods in the riser...
« on: December 21, 2008, 10:46:00 AM »
I've got a Shawnee on the way and the previous owner doesn't know for sure what woods are in the riser.  I think the one wood is Bocote, but the other is a guess for me.

Let me know what you think it is, and I know I can ask Bob, but I thought I would have a little fun...

Lets just call it "perty" wood!

I think you are correct on the Bocote but whatever the other is they look good together!

Looks like curly maple and the flare is bocate or zebra.  Nice

PM Bob the serial number he'll tell you what it is.

But I,ll take a guess,of Myrtle outside and Bocote inside flare with half pine cone and copperhead skins.

Or I would just agree with Jason.

I don't have the bow in hand just yet, and these are the pics I had to go on from seller.  Don't have the serial # at this time either to ask Bob.  But, I didn't need anything more than what we see here to know I wanted this bow.

"A" riser w/medium grip with 1/2 pinecones and "E" carbon/foam limbs 57# @ 28" or (60# @ my 29" draw) with copperheads.

She knows already Pete... as a matter of fact she bought #2 for full price from Bob for my Christmas present.  So, when I found this one for half price it didn't take much convincing to let me get it.  

All I had to do was sell something to pay for it!  ;)
