Having a tough time deciding on which laminates to select for a new black widow.  Loved my BW Ebony but stupidly sold it so I am placing a new order.  First photo are spalted maple that will show more red when finished. I would go with a red cocobolo riser if I use those lams.   The second are various options in BW Ebony.  Let's hear your first preference.  

 

As phade said, it's like picking the ugly girl at the ms universe contest.  No real losers. Lol.  But I do have to decide.

Bottom picture fifth one down from the top. For some reason that on stands out above the rest to me. I do agree with phade. Whichever one you choose, the finished bow will be epic!!!

Lots of black in that one!

Bottom picture, very bottom one. I think the breakup of the dark and light looks cool!

Maple, red shinny bows are faster and way more accurate.

I'm liking the spalted maple best.

[moog5050]

Well this lack of consensus ain't helping.  

[stubborn1VT]

A vote for maple.

[moog5050]

I now have the horrible idea of ordering 2.  Lol

[ncountry]

Order both. I will take your least favorite next season for 1/2 $..

I prefer the maple but all very nice.

[coonhunter]

I prefer the top ones. Any of these will make you a beautiful bow. You are going to have to decide if you want the red or the dark. I can't believe somebody talked you out of the other one you had.

Bottom pic, 2nd one up from the bottom. I like that one. Perfect mix, not too dark but not too light. Gonna be a nice bow either one you pick
