Dale Dye Bad Medicine
« on: January 24, 2016, 07:20:00 PM »
So I'm itching for a new bow and was going to go with a Tall Tines or Silvertip recurve. I also thought about a Centaur build...

But I have a sudden interest in some Bad Medicine, but there isnt a whole heck of a lot out there on them.

I would love to see some pictures and get some input from those that own/have owned them..

Any information/pictures would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I've owned a couple of his bows over the years and have to say the workmanship is great with one of the best grips ever.  

I hear the wait can be a couple years and Mr. Dye is a true seasoned senior.  

Get the checkering and the pierce points to round out a top notch piece.

Do a search here for "Dale Dye Bows" and you will get lots of info.  I pulled up a 2012 thread with some nice pics of the bows.

No finer bow ever built, nor a finer man to deal with.

I liked the ones I had.Its a good all around bow and well mannered.Thier really handsome.

I think his arrowshelf work is the best aesthetically.I like how it wraps over the fat of your bowhand and the arrow shelf  has a unique taper to it from front to back that you cant see in the pics above.

If you like the grip it would be awesome for you.Its a bit high for me.But it is super nice and well thought out.I can see why some guys love the grip.His checkering is superb as well.

His medicine wood limbs are very attractive.

I think its one of those heirloom type bows to hand down to someone special or admire hanging above the fireplace.
