Curly narra and bubinga, the limbs have some looker sappelle veneers.
   
 
 

[KentuckyTJ]

That's a beauty Owlbait. What are the limb veneers?

[owlbait]

sappelle? Bill found those in a "special" woodpile, probably in the one your bow came from.  

[Over&Under]

Here is mine...sporting it's new longbow limbs.
SXT Macassar ebony and kingwood, carbon foam limbs with zebra veneers.

Love them!

Jake, I'll give you $5 for the bow and $500 for the shorthair.

Guys, Those are some beautiful Zippers. Sure makes it hard to decide on a wood combo.

Jake, What limbs are on your bow?

[jomama]

Izzy, the specs on the bow are: 60" 45#@28 prototype #0001. Only a handful out there, a real beauty.

Those are Bills standard longbow limbs I believe 50@28 on and SXT riser carbon/foam.

Jake;
That sure is a pretty limb and riser combo it sure looks shorter than most

Beautiful bows indeed:)
How fast are they compared to other top bowyers and most important how do they accept long drawlengths?

It has been my experience that Bills carbon foam evo recurve limbs are as fast or faster than any bow I have shot...period.  I have shot many of the high end custom bows and have not found one faster than the limbs I just mentioned.  The longbow limbs don't seem as quick as the evo's but they flat spit an arrow as well.

My 58" limbs felt smooth clear out to 29 and would imagine they would work great to 30 but that is only a question Bill Dunn could answer.
