Title: Picky picky picky
Post by: d. ward on December 22, 2008, 09:10:00 PM

I was getting a little picky in my old age.Still unable to spray paint in my shop because of mother nature.I was getting cabin fever again and figured what the heck.I never did really like the way the old Bear take down GREEN tip limbs looked.However I actually liked the way they shot.I just thought the green tips looked a little cheeeeep.So I did a little tip stripen and replacen over the weekend.What do you guy's think all green or black and white.bowdoc (http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii175/bowdocsarchery/bowdocs/snowtips016.jpg)

I never really liked those green or red tips personally. I like your new tips better. Are they made with Kurts new material we read about recently on this forum? - Simon

Gee, Thanks Don- I figured I'd find some pics here when they weren't in my email. Guys, I've owned these limbs for about twenty-five years and the only complaint I ever had was with the tips. I guess they look okay with the green stripe takedown but I actually used them for that entire time on a styleII riser and they just never seemed to match. Doesn't ol' Bowdoc do good work? Thanks Don.....Grant
