Steve, how many of those bows do you have now, like 25? Nice bow man, nice bow.

Nice Steve, thanks!

Steve, I have one of the first TT 64" TD recuves. It has a longer riser, but I see some improvements in the riser you have on your bow. Brian is always trying to test new designs. Mike

Mine is the one on the right.

Mike, I think that might be the record for most grouse with one arrow...at least that is how I heard it from your camp mates.

I have to have a few TallTines, everything else is GONE!

Thats a great looking bow steve. I picked up my TT longbow at KZ also. What a shooter it is, and I just love the snake skins. I'll be getting some pictures for you guys to see soon. That bow and my bamboo arrows are headed for Manitoba this spring.

Steve-O - Remember what I told you when you were commenting on my P2 at K-Zoo : Long risers and short working limbs are "where its at".

Hey Boo-Boo - some dude hangin' out with Steve asked him if I was "Gary"....hmmm, dunno who should be insulted by that one! Gimme a horn hat.

Later

Yes Ryan as usual, you are right. I will say this; I may be a slow learner, but I do learn!

Ryan,

Can you go into some detail on the long riser short limb thing? I always understood that the longer the working limb the better. Never knew why though. Help educate me please.

I promise to learn quicker than Steve

Steve O · « **Reply #52 on:** February 04, 2011, 08:33:00 PM »

DW--when you give me back all my Sitka Gear, you can shoot both of them together and tell me what YOU think.

Lechwe · « **Reply #53 on:** February 04, 2011, 08:53:00 PM »

Steve,

Thanks I'll do that. I was hoping to hear the theory behind the short limb long limb thing. Need to educate myself.

It will take a good bowyer (which I ain't any kind of a bowyer) to explain all the ins and outs, but look at many of the old target bows - there is a reason they were made that way. I feel you get an all around good thing - heavy riser (mass stability), smooth draw (overall longer bow for the same working limb), less floppy parts (limbs) and more solid parts (riser). The limb you have gets worked to its full potential, and in a recurve you can take full advantage of the curl. A long sight window has always seemed to me to be easier to shoot too. Its interesting to see/shoot some of the older bows that were "cutting edge technology" at the time and were designed in the heyday of field archery and thus were made with accuracy first and foremost in mind. Shooting Jack Howard bows (66 inch with a relatively short limb past the fadeouts) and my Wing P2 long riser has really changed my outlook on bow design.

Now, back to the TallTines love fest....

That IS a pretty bow, Steve-O. Its a shame to hit it with the rattle-can spray paint!

Steve O - you can't just publish "Pagel and Burkhardt" picked up new bows without talking to me first...my wife is a regular on here

Just kidding!

I've strung my new TT up and it is very smooth...can't wait to shoot it! I have a feeling this bow is going to have a good year!

Dave Pagel · « **Reply #56 on:** February 05, 2011, 09:24:00 AM »

Bryan,

I had to tell my wife it was another Dave Pagel, somewhat of the evil twin syndrome!

Bryan Burkhardt · « **Reply #57 on:** February 05, 2011, 09:27:00 AM »

Substitute "shoes" for "bows" and they instantly understand Dave!

Pat B. · « **Reply #58 on:** February 05, 2011, 09:41:00 AM »

That is an awesome riser..

Steve O · « **Reply #59 on:** February 05, 2011, 09:44:00 AM »

Well it seems that I have flushed you two out, now I guess I will have to start texting your wives in order for you to post a picture or two?
