Default Massie Ebony riser

Here' s a picture of a massie longhorn with ebony riser and bamboo/carbon limbs. I am thinking of buying it from Jeff. What D' ya think?

Nice looking. I bet it' s fast and smooth shooting. You know that you are evil. Just when I had the virus under control and didn' t want a new bow[8D]

John,

I think you ought to buy it and then we can start a pool to see who can guess the closest to the date you actually resell it! I think you sell just about as many nice, like new bows as Lasztor Pasztor!

Nice bow! I' ve got a Massie on order right now and can hardly wait till Jeff says he' s ready to start building it. Still have time to make those all important wood combination decisions. I' d say go for it, his bows are such shooters.

If Jeff offers the dymondwood as an option for the riser, a great combination would be rosewood colored dymondwood for the riser, tonkin cane core, and bocote veneers for the lams, with the appropriate accents to match. The dymondwood would lend some heft, and therefore stability, to the riser, and the tonkin cane , and maybe even some carbon, would make it as quick as greased lightening!

John, the answer to both of your questions; I don' t know! Haha. I think Jeff said something like I' d have some time to think about wood choices and he' d let me know when he' s ready to begin. The one wood I do know I want is the plyboo limbs. Carbon is still up in the air because I honestly don' t know if I personally would be able to feel its added performance. When he' s ready to start on my bow I' m definitely going to make a trip to his shop and look at what he has available. I' m so excited about this bow.
