Now the wait begins.........
« on: January 25, 2012, 06:06:00 PM »
For those of you who follow the classifieds you know I had my Silvertip up for trade to get a lighter one. Well , I decided to scrap that plan and just order a new set of limbs. So I just got of the phone with Beth and they are in the works. In 3 months I will have a set of limbs that will be 46# @ 29" on a 60" bow, black glass with Bocote wedges and tips. My 52# @ 29" with be my hunting limbs for big game and the 46#'ers will be for stumping and 3-D and keeping my form intact.....hopefully...lol! I can't wait for spring   :wavey:    :cool:

I have never seen a Silver Tip in the 40's pound weight category. I often wonder why that is?  

I flirt with the idea of having Dave remove 3#'s from my 50# limbs.


Congrats on your order. they will come in time to stump hunting this spring.
