Announcement on his site says ONE PIECE not three piece. Changed it just after he took the first one to the show.

Must thank you guys for intoducing me to Tall Tines. Didn't know about them until recent joining trad gang. Love the riser design. Really nice bows pictured here, very jealous that I now have to wait my turn.

Steve, I have had a few rough days at home so I haven't gotten a chance to play with her to much.  I did throw some home made wool puff ball silencers on her and she is whisper quiet now.  The bow really likes Gold Tip 7595 cut to 31" with 225 grains up front.  

Here is the first arrow out of her.  Sorry for the poor quality it is in my basement and taken with my phone.

Well guys I have done some tuning and think I have her dialed in.  Since I live in the city I have to go to my inlaws to get any real distance for safe shooting.  I went down yesterday and am very happy with my new Tall Tines.  I do have to say that the bow shoots flatter than I thought it would.  I am shooting Gold Tip 7595s cut to 30" with 100 grain brass insert and 125 grain points.  It was a little noisy before adding silencers to her but after adding wool puff balls she is whisper quiet now.  Nothing needed for the string contact area on the limbs.  

Here is a picture of my first group shot at 25 yards from a 15 feet elevated platform:  

 

The arrow that is kicked a little left was cut to 31" long.  The 31" and 30" arrows both flew great at 15 yards.  This is why I like to shoot a little farther when tuning to make sure everything flys nice and true.  

I threw a 125 grain Muzzy Phantom on and shot a few arrows at a foam block.  They flew exactly like the field points.  I think I am ready for Oct. 1st which is the opener for deer season here in Michigan!!    :thumbsup:

Nice Tim!

I have some work in Iowa this week, so was able to stop by the TallTines shop this evening.  Brian just got his 3pc longbow that he is going to hunt with done.  We shot for a bit and I've got one on order.  Too hard to resist!  Just like his recurves--GREAT grip and smoking fast.  I'm glad there is not as long of an order list on the longbows    :thumbsup:
