It's gray action wood riser. I feel like a goof for not knowing exactly what the limbs are, but the action wood does go up into the limbs, I believe the light color is maple, and then the glass laminate too. The limb design is funky, but doesn't really look like itunstrung. Here's a pic.

Nice bow. It might be me, or it might be the angle of the pic, but you might check the tiller. Looks off for an R/D bow.

How does it shoot?

Here is a lam R/D bow from an excellent bower I know. You can see the tiller is much smoother than in you pic.. Like I said, it could be due to the angle of your picture.


Its hard to tell without putting it on a tiller board, but it looks like you are getting all the work out of the limb just past the deflex. If thats the case, that bow wont last at 60lbs. Agian, its hard to tell with out better pics and without it put on a tiller tree.

AS for your woods, its probably ipe or boo under glass. maple is not a real good lam wood. If someone is taking the time to make a lam R/D bow, they would use a better lam wood than maple. But ive seen crazier things.
