Osage, yew, black Dymondwood, anything darker looks better to me.

Many to choose from. Like it on dark bows as well as light colored.

A good looking piece of wood is a good looking piece of wood. What combinations look best are a question of what you’re trying to accomplish.
Personally, I like brighter woods with green glass— strong yellows into orange; the next person to post here may think that’s not very good camouflage.

Yew and Myrtle with all my Hill Style bows. The picture doesn’t show the best color but with Green and Light gray glass looks great.

Rosewood, but rosewood goes with anything :)
A nice dark figured rosewood riser with green glass is sharp.

Cocobola and green look awesome. I had one built with green glass, cocobola riser, and bubinga accents. It was stunning. Couldnt shoot it for crap so I sold it, but man was it sharp!

Here is my 1957 Blackhawk Hornet with green woven glass. I'm unsure what the woods are in the riser but I think it's a good looking bow. It's a real shooter as well.
Pretty bows above all.

Green diamondwood, black diamondwood or green actionwood.
I think brown and black glass go Better with the more natural woods compared to green glass

Another vote for Bubinga. My Bubinga riser Bear Takedown would look good with green glass.
