Title: LongBow Tip Configurations
Post by: Shakes.602 on November 27, 2007, 11:15:00 PM
Which of the String Grooves and Tip Shapes are  YOUR  Favorite, and Why?  :confused:    :archer:  

1. Pin-Type Ends that End in a "Pin"?

2. Full-Figured String-Groove Wide at the Tip?

Something about like this is what I like. Keeps some eye appeal and is not too big.

Here are the tips on El Cheapo.  I had already reworked the top one cuz the edge was a little sharp on my first try and was cutting the string.  Much smoother radius and no string wear.  Steve
