Purple Heart is one of my favorites.  I have a decked out Bighorn with PH.  Love it.

Doesn't Purpleheart darken with age like osage? I wonder if there is a sealer that would prevent that.
 That is a beautiful wood combo and makes a beautiful bow, Tenbrook.

Thanks Pat!

Yes it does darken with age.  

I was JUST thinking the same thing...To have a sealer with some UV protection that would allow the wood to keep its color would be great.    :thumbsup:

Just wait until it ages. It will be very nice.
I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.

Looks like yew cores, that color and purpleheart are a perfect complement. they really frame and set the riser off. Great work.
God bless, Steve
