I'm sitting here laughing out loud at myself and others.

I know each and everyone of us have preached to our kids or grandkids, about PEER pressure.

We've adequately corrupted Fred....He's already ordered a TallTines....now we're working on Mike Walker and Allen Schafer.

Adults are are exposed to peer pressure every bit as much as teenagers today, at least here on TradGang.

Just for the record....I feel no remorse or guilt for the arm twisting,(peer pressure)... just telling you boys to get on the list because the line is getting longer every day.

Maybe it's not arm twisting at all....nawww...it ain't arm twisting...it's just sharing the pleasures of what TallTines shooters already know.

Ah Billy that aint peer pressure...This is! Just wanted to share these outside photo's they do Brian's work of art more justice.

By the way I dropped my brace height down to 7" and got a slight little twang noise. Twisted back to 7-1/8" as Brian and Billy recommended and presto no noise and smokin' fast.

Here are the groups I'm consistently getting at 20 yards. Went stumping for a minute a little while ago and man I'm loving this dude.

There ya go Tom....that's what I'm talking about....crank it on up a notch or 2.

That's enuff extra torque on the arm twist to have everyone wanting one.

WOW that bow is awesome!!!!!! Love the finished product.

You all may have noticed the limb butts on this bow are rounded off. I asked Brian if he would do that for me and he said sure. I really like it. I think it blends the lines of the riser into the limbs. If you are pondering a new Talltines that is just another option that's not yet on the website to think about.

TJ,
Those look like my groups since I started shooting Brians bow I have only had the chance to shoot it a few times but it is great, I love mine more every time I shoot it. Now if I could just get out in the woods with it!

70# @ 28, Lacewood riser with tulipwood limb/boo limbs. It looks even better with my hand made antler bolts.

Great looking bow Michael. Send me a hero pic when you break it in.

Man are they some fine looking shooting instruments.Brian, when do you expect the 1 piece curves to be available?

talltines · « **Reply #114 on:** November 14, 2009, 11:28:00 PM »

I'm hoping to have a piece ready by Kalamzoo if not sooner. Things are pretty busy in the shop but December should be a good time for me to get a few worked up.

TJ.....that turned out real nice....and looks like you two are getting along well, by the look of that group. Good luck and hope to see pic's with an animal real soon.

KentuckyTJ · « **Reply #116 on:** November 16, 2009, 11:19:00 AM »

Terry, I hope to whack a few more doe this season. Waiting on the orange army to retreat before I take to the stand.

oneshot-onekill · « **Reply #117 on:** November 16, 2009, 12:16:00 PM »

yep I hear you...gun season came in over the weekend here....good luck! Love the finished product.

Ok after shooting many more shafts than I should have over this weekend, I have more info on the Tall Tines. I think a good sign of a bow's stability is its ability to shoot many shaft sizes. I have only had a few bows in my day that were able to do this well. The TT shot my 2016 & 2117 aluminums, my 3555 carbon Gold tips and my 500 series carbon Trad Only's all very well with little tweaking of point weights as Billy had stated.

While stump shooting I realized the sight window is very generous for a 58" bow riser and offers a little more visibility than my other 58" bows.

My draw length is 27" and I always like to have my brother of the bow (Lowebow) with his 29.5" draw give any of my new bows a pull to see if he feels any stack at his draw. He said he felt no stack at all which was good to hear.

TJ, that's good news about the TT shooting a variety of shafts. My AD Tradlites shouldn't be an issue out of mine then.
