Ultimate Schafer Silvertip (pics)
« on: October 18, 2009, 05:40:00 PM »
Ok...I'm not proclaiming this bow to be THE ultimate...that's a very individual matter. I think a Silvertip may be the ultimate bow for a lot of hunters however. With that in mind, here's some of the latest work to come out of the Schafer shop. Take a look...feel free to add your own pictures.

A personal thank you to Dave and Beth Windauer for outstanding craftsmanship, artistry and service!

I won't let anyone know you didn't hunt this morning just so you could stay in your den and fondle that beauty.  :)
