Just had to tell someone ...
« on: January 11, 2010, 09:33:00 PM »
Well, I got off the phone with Dan Toelke a while ago ... put in my order for a 64" 48# @ 30" Whip, dark colored juniper verneer, boo and walnut cored with dark colored cocobolo riser and 2 strings, one for woodies and one for carbons.  Should be done in a little over a month.  I am pretty jacked.

It probably won't take Dan a month. You won't be dissapointed!

Hahaha!! I love it!! You're a man after my own heart. I mean I can't seem to keep anything to myself either. Please don't get me wrong you have every reason to be yelling it from the rooftops.
Congratulations!!
God bless,Mudd

Hey Mudd, how cool is that????  WAY!!

Sorry, couldn't resist.   :D

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

I have trouble waiting four days for a bow, I couldn't stand to order one that took a long time.  I can imagine your excitement 8^).  Make sure you take action photos when you get it.

Great choice from a great Bowyer.  I had a Whip that was the most quiet bow I ever shot and deadly accurate with no shock at all.  I really regret selling it.

Best of luck with it.

Just a question, why a different string for woodies or carbons.  I shoot the same string for both without problem...  Is there a benifit from this that I am missing.

Bornagainbowhunter,
Teh width of the serving is the issue.  For carbons, it is very loose for woodie nocks, and fatter for woodies can be too tight for carbon nocks.  Also, woodies may like to be nocked a bit higher on the string, so differet strings for different arrows.

Congrats Bob, Dan has made me a few bows, among them a T.D. Recurve and a 1 pc. Chinook that were Cocobolo/Juniper and they were beauties. I am waiting on a special D bow myself, it's nice that with Dan that's been 4 weeks or less. Be sure and post some pictures when you get her.

Jim, I read an e-mail from Dan this morning.  He cut out the Veneers yesterday, I only mailed my deposit yesterday, but he is working on it already!  Dan seems to be one heck of a guy!

Everything I have read about his bows makes me think I will love the way it shoots.  So, I am pretty excited.
