I've got a 3pc T/D Recurve on order (be here in March).  

I'd be happy to give Beth permission to email you photos of my bow, before she sends it to me......to tide you over, 'til July!  :D

Great bows and great folks. Here are mine and both have mojo. Perhaps my favorite hunting bows.

It is hard to fill the waiting time.

[SERGIO VENNERI]

Felix; you have 90 mistresses to occupy your waiting time ! Silvertips are worth waiting for!

[limbow]

This just in!!!!! Received my T/D Longbow last Saturday    It is 62", 56#@28". Woodland green camo limbs coupled with stained quilted maple veneers on the back. Antler tips and front riser overlay. Checkered grip of course! I am pleased to say it is a dandy.

Great selection Kevin, man that bow looks good!

[cacciatore]

sergio,you are probably right but the wait kills you,maybe is better I grab one of the few I have and make some stump.

[crack a toa]

how do they make the camo limbs? looks awsome!!

[tradtusker]

Camo limbs are made with Camo mosquito netting.

p.s. Kevin whats an awesome looking Tip

[crack a toa]

This won't help much: I'm waiting on a one piece Silvertip that's been in the works for well over a year (if I recall correctly). I believe I'll see it sometime in December if I'm lucky. I really never get in much of a hurry on receiving a custom bow. Rush jobs seldom work well for me. Anyway...this one piece bow should be something really special: a combination of traditional and exotic woods, along with some decorative touches. Still, my goal was to keep the bow quite traditional and elegant. I know the wait will be worth it!

The "ttt" of this thread interupted my patience as I await my first Tip. It is due in April.  I've ordered a leftie in 58". I haven't settled on everything yet but I want it to be FF because mine will be 46# at my 26" draw length and I'd like to squeeze a bit more performance out the draw weight. This means there will be Dymonwood in the riser. I'll have an exotic riser flare and the limb veneers will be exotics. I'll have antler limb details, antler burr bolt knobs, checkered grip, and most likely the bow will be drilled for a new plunger-style springy elevated rest by Strickland's Archery. The bow may be cut 1/4" past center instead of the standard 3/16" to accomodate this arrow rest. I might have some type of antler plug, scrimshaw disc, etc. made to cover the cushion plunger hole in case I decide to shoot off the sheft or a bear weather rest.

I'm having an awful time settling on the wood combos!  That Denton bow above is very striking with the contrasting riser woods!

I've been really studying the bows with bocote and cocobolo flares. At one time I thought I had settled on the Charcoal and Cocobolo riser..but....?

I came really close to buying a used LH Tip from one of the fine fellows on this site. One was just a hair heavier than I wanted and the other was 2" longer. It would have made the wait easier if I had bought one of these in the interim though!  I keep my eye on the classifieds just in case the perfect "interim" bow does pop up though.

Tic Tac,I am not in the hurry to receive mine too.It will mean I am one year older.

[cacciatore]

[cacciatore]
