Well I went back and looked at every pic again, I can't believe
After all these years I haven't owned a Tip. I guess I'm still
Trying to convince myself to spend that much for a bow. I mean are they really worth $2000, I'm asking, I don't know.
Priced one out with FF option, couple of exotic woods, flair in riser and it adds up quick. I did shoot one for a short time, it
Shot very nice and felt great in my hand. Still kicking it around,
Lots of money.
  Felix, you and I both know the bow is not the Killer, it's the guy pulling the string. You could have done the same with
Any of your bows, great shooting.
  Joe VT, love that riser wood, is it Cocobolo. Also where did
You get those Antler limb bolts with the Bear Claw, sweet.

RW,you are right,they are expensive but my isn't a passion it is an obsession,plus as a job I am a collector.
I have more than 100 bows and when I shoot good I do it with all the bows of mine,on bad days I can't hit the side of a barn with any of them. BUT,Silvertips are very good and dependable bows,easy to tune,good hunting companions.
There are many others that I like:Zipper,Blacktail,old Bear TD,Stalker,Dale Dye you name them but the Schafer has always his place to the sun.

Yes, all are like that and I have never had any thing scratched in transport, of course my case is one of the originals that Paul's wife made and has a cutout in foam where the riser and the limbs set, nothing can scratch it.

Don't know how to post pics but I have two tips, both same except for one is 60@28 and one is 55@28.

They are shooters as everyone has said. Honestly not shot many different bows so I am not good at comparisons. Just know you can go wrong with ordering a silvertip and Dave and Beth are great folks to deal with.
Always be stubborn.

Captain hindsight to the rescue!
