Got a beautiful piece of bocote riser wood to make a bow for myself. Thing is I cannot decide on what veneers and cores to use. I would love to see some bocote combos and decide what I like best. I would like darker venners and of course will use clear 'glass. Any pics or suggestions is greatly appreciated. I think I think too much, that's what the wife says  :archer:

Bocote and yew is lovely. Bocote and cherry isn't hard to look at either.

Here's one I made a couple years ago for my wife's uncle.  Bacote and Bubinga.
