Jon,

If it say Apache in the spec's it's tiller 3 under.

I did not know either one of those things. It is a split finger tiller, but shoots great 3 under.

The B&W ebony is a cool fact too. Although I didn’t see ever getting rid of this bow     :thumbsup:      :goldtooth:

Disappointing news !!!  You won't have the only one with mango.

I just talked Dan again,  It's going to be Micarta riser, Mango limb veneers ,  but I don't think there will be twins !

The word Bocote did not come up,  so won't  be identical Twins !

But if they are ! It's going to cost us a lot of money ! Twins do things together !!!    :goldtooth:

Dan sure is a great person to work with, he gets your bow exactly how you want.

For anyone who knows...what does the -7 mean in Dan's spec's

My Whip HS is an Apache -7.  I'm thinking this is in reference to the riser length from Fade to Fade.

Anybody know for sure and what length that would be if it is concerning the riser?

I was wondering if anyone had pics of a Pika with black glass limbs instead of those beautiful wood veneers?  If I ever get a light poundage bow to help with a bad shoulder, I would consider going that direction to save $100 on the pricing...

one thing that really blew me away about the Pika is how small the limb tips are

I have the myrtle burl limbed pika that nineworlds posted pics of. It is my favorite bow. It shoots a variety of arrows well.

Currently I am shooting victory vap arrows out of it finished arrow weight is 478. I used to shoot Douglas fir or heavy hunter carbons with it that weighed in around 650 grains.

It was easy to tune and the bow feels about 5 lbs lighter than it pulls. Super smooth and shoots better than my 64 whip. I don’t know what it is about the bow but it just flat out shoots better than any bow I have shot
