I had one made by Rocky Miller.  It was reasonably quick and it was quiet. Still, it ranked lower than other custom bows I've owned.  If you can't find one, consider other similarly styled bows.  I've owned several I preferred.

The interview with Bob was published in the Aug/Sept issue of Traditional Bowhunter mag. Back issues cost $5.00 shipped and are still available.

The one piece Silvertip has the Deathmaster limb design according to Bob Savage.

Frisky, interesting comments on the Tice and Watts Spartan Hunters. I have a 58" 50# Spartan Hunter and a 60" 55# Spartan Hunter. They had a reputation back in the early 70s of being pretty quick bows. I joke to my friends I'm the biggest Tice and Watts collector around with two.

My hunting and shooting friend used to be a Tice and Watts dealer.

Reddogge- you have two of the best! Especially the 58", 50 pounder. That's the bow I was looking for until I got the Deathmaster. They were really fast shooters. If I had found one, I wouldn't have bothered buying my Deathmaster. Now, if I ever get out east, I'll have to shoot your Tice and Watts, lol! The good thing about Tice and Watts bows is they come up for sale on occasion. Not the 58" though.

Frisky,
Here you go, my Tice and Watts "collection". I bought that 58" bow about 5 years ago and paid what I thought was a high price $250 but I wanted it. I met the seller at a big shoot and he said "Oh, you were the guy I sold the Tice and Watts too. I knew you wanted it so I jacked the price up on you. I think I paid $90 for it." Classy guy.

The cheapskate will lose 10 times more due to that behavior, lol! I paid $175, plus shipping, for my Deathmaster. That was in 2003.

I bought a sweet Deathmaster from Austin Brown on here a few months ago. Its 68# and it's a flame thrower.

There's another bow they're talking about on the other forum that blew smoke too. The "El Lobo." Bob Savage said Fred Anderson's Fasco bows were "perfect bows."

Yes, I wouldn't buy anything from a money-grubber. The Tice and Watts looks like it has a great grip size and shape.
