Beautiful bow! I was tempted to put in for one of those, but happened upon a Cheyenne on here a few weeks ago that I am very pleased with and going to try and stick it out for a bit and quit buying bows!

Yup...
You said it.
Sweet bow.

Mine looks a lot like yours except I have charcoal stained curly maple on the belly, carbon fiber on the back.

Same riser woods, just a little different configuration.

Just christened mine this week with a nice hog and a raccoon.

Beautiful, quiet, accurate, fast and smooth.

He will be building me another for a dear friend.

Ryan, You have the first set of carbon back and belly limbs. Well...The first set that have made it to a customer! These limbs are from the Evolution forms but with a different lay up. Its not only adding carbon to the belly. This version is called Evolution Z4.
These limbs are so stable laterally that I would be shocked if you could intentionally twist a limb. In fact if they are not cut out strait from the start.I don't believe they could be corrected.

Ryan, is correct.The nearly black wood is Madagascar Ebony.

Very beautiful bow! He makes excellent bows. I think I've shot one of every model he makes and boy do they great. Fast accurate and quiet. He has one that I've shot that I've been eyeing and would love to have.

I've got a riser ordered from Bill with some of that Black and White Ebony.  Seeing his work on that wood in person blew me away.

That is a top shelf bow in a top shelf Trad Gangers hands. The outcome will speak for itself here shortly. Great looking bow Brother!

I gotta ask....are those static tip recurve limbs? Looks like they have pretty good hooks......  :dunno:
