Black Widow PLX arrived
« on: March 01, 2011, 02:22:00 PM »
I got my new Widow PLX today.  64" 52#@28" (about 56-57#@my draw).  Cocobolo riser with some really nice looking yew limbs.  These are all yew tapers, no bamboo.  The belly side looks like a more typical yew whereas the back has some dark wood weaving through it.  I had BW change the riser overlays from the standard black on red to cocobolo on black and think it looks fantastic.  Have a look...Mike

Two of my favorite bow woods there and that is some exceptional Yew.
