Wow, it is amazing to see the different sizes of some of those risers!

Jonathan, I thought that I would like the thinner Bubinga handle, but after shooting it I prefer the Red Stripe more. Also, the added weight helps keep my bow more stable.

The thread has gotten quite as quiet as of late. Anyone been out shooting there T/D's.

Just shot my greenstripe this morning.

Here are the specs:
riser: early greenstripe Bear TD
bow quiver: Bighorn
limbs: Rose Oak #1 -- 51# at 29"
string: SBD 6-strand
arrow: 517 gr Traditional Only carbon

Getting my eye tuned up for deer season. Arrows are tuned, bow is in great shape. The season will be here before you know it.

There is a photo of me shooting the greenstripe somewhere earlier in this thread. I also posted photos of two of my other Bear TDs.

Sam,
I saw your post and story about the bear hunt. Very well done.

:noteworthy:

Those green stripes have some good mojo, don't they?
Great photos, by the way.
Joe

Sam are you shooting #1 or #3 limbs for your 30 inch draw ?

Gotcha. Once I tried the #3's I really liked them. I draw 30 also and they are much smoother.

Just added another LH B-Riser to the bow rack..

OBXarcher · « **Reply #332 on:** June 22, 2012, 06:22:00 AM »

Those two tones are looking good. I think I may need one on the rack soon. Just not sure if it should be an A or B

smokin joe · « **Reply #333 on:** June 23, 2012, 12:58:00 AM »

Why not one of each -- you would have twice the fun.

I have an A "black and tan" and I like the way it feels and shoots with Rose Oak #3 limbs. It makes a smooth 60" bow. At 53 pounds it it substantially faster than my Grayling 60# limbs were.

Here it is:

OBXarcher · « **Reply #334 on:** June 23, 2012, 08:11:00 AM »

here's the rack so far. Have another green stripe waiting on me when I get back to SC.

I shot Bowdocs 1970 TD, wow, what a smooth shooter. I might have to get me one!!

I am going to have to stop looking at this thread,

Had a heart breaker this weekend....I have been eagerly awaiting my new bb2 hex 6 limbs to go with my black and tan 'A' riser.

I was up at the factory and we tried the new limbs in the riser, everything looked great until we drew the bow and let down, only to find out that the string didn't track back into the grooves. Upon inspection we discoverd that my riser limb pockets are out of twist, riser is shot, so cant shoot the new limbs from it.

Called bear but they don't do repairs.

still reeling, :-(......,do I try and sell the limbs or wait to see what comes up?, not too keen on the new risers.

SAM E. STEPHENS · « **Reply #337 on:** June 26, 2012, 07:29:00 PM »

Just send them to me and I will put them to good use , sorry to hear that man.......

Wolfkiss · « **Reply #339 on:** June 27, 2012, 03:02:00 AM »

Just have to wait and see what turns up, you never know, might end up with a better riser one day to use with the new limbs.
