Varmint,

From what I understand and have been told, Screaming Eagle Bows own the design of the Wolverine. They gave the design to Dave Windauer and Bob Morrison to make for them. Bob doesn't make the bows any more, and Dave makes very few of them and only on request. They're very rare bows.
I'm not sure how similar the Windauer Wolverines are to the Silvertip longbows. I'll be able to tell you after this weekend, as I'm going to stay with my cousin Andy (tradtusker). Andy's father has a 2 piece Silvertip longbow. I'll share next week on how similar I found them.  ;)  The unique thing about my Windauer Wolverine, is that it has serial number #1!  ;)

Serial #1!?!?!

Very,very nice!

I would say it's more a collectors item now than a hunting bow.............but how can you have one and not use it...

I'll be looking for the post on what you find and what you think of them compared to each other.

I know I love my 2pc SilverTip........hope I like the 3pc as much.

Hey Matabele!

It's great to see another zimbo on here!  ;)  
Yer brew, I've been holding my breath re: the elections! It's been a hard, but not surprising, thing to watch! I really hope that there is change there, the country really needs it! Good to hear from you tho!  ;)   :D

Very cool bow!!!  :thumbsup:
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Thanks Ben! Yeah, I hope I get her some kudu blood too!  ;)  Like Andy mentioned above, she's perfect for stalking bushbuck in dry river beds!  :D  Can't wait to get her back there!  :thumbsup:
