Awesome.  Would like to know what the woods are and the specs of that beauty.

That looks just like my new whip. I have had mine a little over a month, and never expected it to be such a top performer. Performs as good as my ACS, what a bow!

I can't say enough good things about it! I almost want to sleep with it, but the wife won't let me.

Outstanding!!!  Is that cocobolo riser, it looks awesome.  I'd guess either juniper or yew limbs.  Great looking bow...Mike

Travis, the bow is 66" long, 54lbs.@29". The riser is cocobolo, the veneers some exceptional Juniper cut near Dan's home. Tip overlays are cocobolo and riser overlays yew, myrtlewood and cocobolo. It is a worn-out phrase but pictures truly don't do this bow justice, especially these pictures. I will try to get some in better light tomorrow.

Hey Mike how have you been? Yes again the riser is cocobolo, it is amazing how the striations lay out so symmetrically then suddenly turn away at a right angle in the second photo down. Dan commented that he had never seen a piece grow like that and I certainly have not.
Thanks Mike for the compliment and all the others too, I will pass them along to Dan.

Jim, that is what stood out to me.  It almost looks like two different pieces of cocobolo glued together.  Awesome and very unique.  I know you'll love that bow, the classic Whip is my favorite!!!  Enjoy...Mike

I've never seen Juniper that light, very nice.  Maybe it's White Juniper.  Love the Classic Whip.
