English yew self bow. Sapwood back and heartwood belly. The perfect bow wood that is NOT laminated.

I have two bows made by Marc Moriez of Chek-Mate with yew limbs...the fact is yew makes great laminated bow limbs by itself...I have often argued that core material on a glass bow is relatively unimportant and yet I really do like shooting yew the best...I just got the capability to post pictures again yesterday and I will try to get some done this weekend...the riser on my Beaver Creek is some very nice fiddleback or curly walnut that I supplied and the riser on my Hunter III is, as far as I know, bubinga and rosewood with maple stripes...I think they make great combinations

Two Super D's.  One was a few years old and had reached a honey brown and the other is new.  Both yew.

   

My beautiful highly figured Super D.  Sorry I don't have a good picture.  Pictures don't do this bow justice.  Yew can be beautiful as well as functional.  It's also the top one on the first picture.
   
62" Super D, 47#s @ 25-1/2"
58" TS Mag, 53#s @ 26"
56" Bighorn, 46#s @ 26.5"

Just a phone pic, but you get the idea.
Liberty English, 66"  60@28.
All yew limbs with coco riser.  Great shooter and way faster than a D bow should be.
