I can't remember if this was ever asked before? Here goes: What are your favorite two wood combos in a longbow riser? Pictures would be very helpful if possible. Thanks!

The list is about endless for me but I think just about any wood looks good with a Gabon Ebony swipe through it.

My new bow is Macassar Ebony footed with Cocobolo.

I like Cocobolo and Maple, Shedua and Tiger wood,
or good wavy two tone Actionwood.

Zircota or ebony with tulipwood would be my first choice.

I would have to say cocobola with bacote which I have a treestick and blacktail in. Or Myrtle and Wenge my other blacktail.

Coco and bolo.  ;)   Ok, not two woods, but a nice two color grain. A Hill, with cocobolo riser and yew limbs is about as beautiful as it gets.(to my eye)

Cocobolo and bacote with a yellowheart stripe. Yellowheart is my favorite accent for bacote. It seems to make the bacote 'jump out'.
 
Osage and cocobolo with bloodwood accents.

Zebra riser and cocobolo limbs.  Not a combo I see a lot of, but it looks nice to my eye.  Just about anything looks good with cocobolo I guess
