WOW! That is a beauty for sure Kevin!

Seeing that bow, oh dangit, looks like I need to make another call to Montana!

What will be your arrow set up?

"What will be your arrow set up?"

Not just sure yet. I need to talk to my hunting partner. I think this bow is screaming for a new set of custom woods.

That is one of the prettiest bows I've ever seen.  I'll bet she'll really be something to shoot.

Beautiful bow Kevin. I've had a Silvertip takedown, but I've always wanted a one-piece.

Kevin, your going to have to give us an update on how this baby shoots.  If it shoots half as good as it looks, I'd say your going to be okay.   :archer2:

A dozen elite arrows all tricked out would be awesome. The bow is stunning.

The Shedua and Koa are both as pretty as any I have ever seen, and I have seen some really pretty pieces of those woods. Of course, Dave always builds a great looking bow. Congratulations on a very special Silvertip.

Thanks guys...

I'm pretty sure most guys look at the usual shedua and don't think much about it. Some of it is just monotone in appearance. Maybe that's why a great piece of shedua is such a thing of beauty. I also love shedua for its light physical weight. This bow weighs just slight ounces more than my 2pc TD longbows.

Koa...now there's a wood you just have to hold in your hands to appreciate.

Both woods strike me as unusually beautiful. You are correct, the shedua on one of my bows was mostly bland although a nice "chocolate" color. I do appreciate the note about the weight of shedua.

You saw the PM I sent you.  The reason I got the woods correct on your bow is because I had been sent a picture of your bow and another very nice Macassar 1-piece with tigerwood limbs by Beth as I'm trying to decide what woods for my TD.
