Gold tip blems are in again! all sizes
« on: January 09, 2014, 08:17:00 AM »
Well, we were surprised with a pretty good load of blems that just came in. I guess they were doing clean out for the end of the year.

At least for now, the pricing hasn't changed. Don't know if that will hold true for the near future or not but get em while you can.

Everything that came in is wood grain and even though we got in a fair amount, we have been known  to sell out in short order especially the 3555's and 5575's.

Please place all orders on our website if possible as they will be handled first. We are incredibly busy taking orders and packing during the times that blemishes come in and this will help to ensure that we can get it done correctly and in a timely manner. If you need to call or email, you are welcome

Quick reference:
1535-s .600 spine and work great for bows in the 40lb range and below a bit depending on draw length and center cut of bow. They are 30" shafts

3555-s .500 spine and are best from mid 40's to low 50's depending on draw length and center cut of bow. These are now 32" shafts

5575-s .400 spine and are best from low 50lb bows to low 60lb bows depending on draw length and center cut of bow. These are 32" shafts.

7595-s .300 spine and are best suited for 60 to 75 lb bows depending on draw length and center cut of bow. These are really stiff! They were a staple for me and my low to mid 80lb at 30" cut to center bows with 400 grains up front (cut to 31"). They can be made to work out of less, but if you have them working out of your laminated mid 50's lb bows, there is something skewed.

thanks, bigjim

Thanks guys. I've got a few to go around, but took me nearly a year to get any amount of them.

I can hear it now..."Hey Jim, when do you think your going to get some blems in?"  Well, there in and in the most popular sizes too. Don't expect them to be there just whenever you want them.

Just ordered a dozen 3555's. Glad to here they are 32 inches, I have not been able to find any that length. With a 32 draw, it makes a difference. Thanks, Scott.

Need help. I shoot a 70" Hill Wesly Special 46@29" and I pull it a true 31". I normally use a 125 gr BH with a standard long insert. Which size GT's should I order?

Perhaps I should add that I am currently using 60-65 11/32" cedars cut to 31-1/2" BOP with 125 grain Ace Stabdards. I often over pull and hit my riser with the broad head and find it difficult to find wood any longer.

John, the 5575's would work but you may need to add some more weight up front. Either a 50g aluminum insert or a 100g brass would fit the bill.

A full length 5575 plus nock and feathers, a 100g brass insert and a 125g pt should put you right around 544g. Of course a 50g aluminum would be 494g.

Just a guess mind you, but since that bow is not cut to center, I would opt for the heavier set up.

thanks, bigjim

We will ship most everything at the first mail pickup after your order, but we are experiencing an incredible amount of orders and this may delay things slightly. Fletched arrows normally go out in 1-2 days. We had so many orders between Friday afternoon and Sunday morning that my wife Barbara and my secretary (Barbara's sister) went in Sunday and packed boxes all afternoon. I refrain from packing boxes and use bow building as an excuse to stay out of the office  :)

"I'd love to help pack boxes, but I've got to go build bows."

No doubt you've got those two ladies fooled.

I might have them fooled, but I know my wife has been asleep for awhile and likely Debbie has too, yet I still have a couple of beaver tails to install tonight before I go to sleep....but they will pack and ship them...not sure who gets the last laugh.
