Riser woods
Limb Veneers
Limb Veneers
The riser is a beautiful focal point of your bow. We have options below to choose from and can get other types of wood as well.
I like to use woods with a mass weight of over 50 lbs/ft3. This adds mass weight to the center of the bow, making it easy to hold steady.
Changing from the standard riser wood of Bubinga will add some cost.

Limb Veneers are purely for beauty. Below is a list of woods I commonly use for veneers, but we can get others as well.
Some veneers will add cost over and above the standard Clear Glass and Veneer upgrade.
