Tall Tines
« on: April 11, 2015, 06:58:00 PM »
I wanted to say a public thank you to "Bisket" Mark Mingerink.

I posted a want add earlier in the week for a Tall Tines Longbow.  Within an hour I got a response from him, offering a TT Longbow  with  perfect specs.   He sent it and I began shooting it right away.

Man, I love longbows and most of them require some TLC and a lot of prayer and patience to shoot well..    This bow was different from the 2nd shot.. I changed the rest to a material that I like on all my bows.. A rug rest...   From that point on.. . Oh.. Baby!!!!

The TT L/B is the Tundra Model "D" Shaped Limbs.

I heard they were good, and I just wanted to try.  I honestly figured with the "D" shaped limbs it would be a dog...

WOW!!!  I'm totally impressed with this bow...
It shoots as flat as any bow I've ever had.  And it looks amazing with those D shaped limbs..  The grip is great for a low wrist style shooting and has good mass weight..

It spines really easy and is the most forgiving long bow I do believe I've ever handled..

Quite is an understatement on this model.. The D limbs are the quietest bows made imo.  and this is just unreal...  has some two tracks wool silencers on a SBD string.

I don't get handshock from it and I'm completely impressed with it in every way.  Brain at Tall Tines really hit a home run with this one.

I am gonna be getting another one from him, but am in a decision cramp as to get either the D limbs again or the new R/D limb design...  Will prob get both sets...

But honestly, if you are a 3 pc. longbow guy...
These are tops in my books...

I know all bows shooting a decent weight arrow have a pretty good drop off after 20-25 yards.. I don't notice hitting low until around 35 with this bow.. I'm shooting a 475 gr. arrow too.. Only pulling 47 lbs.  

Thanks for listening to this really excited shooter....here are some pics:

       
   
   
Blessings,
Steve

I love my Stickflinger.

Fits like a glove and shoots like a dream.

Congrats sir!

My friend got one at the same time as myself. He got both the tundra 62" and 60" stickflinger limbs.

The tundra is 3# heavier and they shoot virtually the same speed.

They both shoot great, no hand shock and equally quite. The only difference I see is that rubber band feel that you get out of a classic D shape.

I thoroughly enjoy both of my Tall Tines longbows (one of each, the "D" shape and Hybrid).  You did good with that one Steve.
