I have 2 stickflngers and they are my favorites. Lost my phone in water fishing  last week and could  not save my pics. Killed some nice Virginia bucks and a Ohio  public  land buck last year that was 7.5 yr.old. do a search as recommended and good choice

My Tall Tines recurve is my go to bow.  I have had nearly every big name bow out there and the TT is at the top of the heap. I have more pics but these are the only pics I have on this phone.

Come on, humor the guy.  I should have kept this recurve, this is my best trophy- but I switched to a Stickflinger.  All longbows now.

So what did you order?  Model, woods, length, poundage, etc.

I know they recently change hands.  Mine shoots well and fairly quiet.  It's I need of a refinish.  I thought I might have a riser issue but had it looked at and it's just finish scratching.

I thought about ordering one but I was concerned about the change of hands. Let me know what you think when you get it

I'd go with a Primaltech if I were you.

I am the owner and bowyer at Primal Tech and here’s my 2 cents...
Michael is a buddy of mine and I can personally guarantee you that the Tall Tines line hasn’t changed one bit in make or craftsmanship! Michael spent weeks training hands on with Bryan. He is a perfectionist and is driven to see the line not only continue but to grow! There are great things ahead for Tall Tines!!

GCook, I appreciate the vote of confidence but opinions are like elbows, most everybody has their own!  :biglaugh: :biglaugh:

Wrong part of the arm.  It's armpits.  Everyone has a couple and at the end of the day they usually stink! :biglaugh: :laughing:

I shoot one of Randy's Primal Tech bows and haven't owned a Tall Tines. However, like Randy, I consider Michael a friend and know that he is a hard nosed hunter, a perfectionist and a man of the highest character. The only chink in his armor is that he doesn't like sloshing around in hot, muddy, snake and mosquito infested East Texas swamps with us.  :biglaugh:

Miss ya bud and best of luck in your new adventure!

I meant no disrespect to the new owner. 
But honestly, even though I shoot the TT bow well, have killed a few pigs and deer with it and shot some good tournament scores (good for me) I just like Randy's bow better.  The angle of the grip is a big difference for me.

I consider Michael a good friend.  When he took over I placed an order for a stick flinger.  I have zero concerns about anything. Accept for my mule deer hunt I’m planning on using the stick flinger on, being cancelled.

 If I could just talk him into hunting whitetails with me in Ohio  :biglaugh:

Michael hunts enough as it is! He'll never make a bow if folks talk him into more hunting! :biglaugh:

I am looking forward to the end of this Covid situation. I haven't had a chance to shoot 3D with Michael since last year. I'm looking forward to seeing one of his bows in person.

I would have zero concerns about ordering a bow from Michael. If I ever order another recurve, it will be a Tall Tines.

However, I think we got off topic here.  The original poster asked about success photos from guys who use Tall Tines  bows and I think we should stick to that.

I hope to have a nice grip and grin picture of a mule deer and my stick flinger  by mid nov :pray:  they are my jinxed animal. 6th trip for one

Couldn't say the number of animals that I have killed with a TallTines bow. Mostly a stickflinger, but a few turkey with the recurve.  Something over 100, though.  Michael is making me another stickflinger.  I will be sure to post pics when it is done.  My favorite bows, bar none.  I have tried a few.  As has been mentioned, it is personal preference.  Lots of other good bows out there.  I don't mind biting the bullet and being one of the earliest to get a bow from Michael.  You all will be jealeous, lol.

Sounds quite reassuring that you are in very good hands.

They are great bows. But lets remember it takes more then the bow to take the animal.
Title: Re: TallTines
Post by: GCook on April 23, 2020, 09:03:44 PM
Here's a couple of TallTines kills.
My only turkey with any bow and my only buck with a traditional bow.  So far.

I ordered a bow and a set of recurve limbs, for another riser I have, from Brian in December. I also sent two risers to Brian to have the grips reworked to his low grip and checkered.
Last month I was contacted by Michael, my bows are to be the first bows built after the transfer of the business to him from Brian. I’m certain Michaels work will be outstanding and I’m excited to have one of the first Arnette built Tall Tines.

Only recurve kills that I have pics of.   Have several with stickflingers, but not sure if OP wanted those.

Well look at that, I finally signed on to Tradgang! It’s been a while folks. Thank you for the kind words on here, I’m looking forward to getting a couple of your bows out in the very near future!

I meant to make an announcement on here but was not able to sign on until recently.

If you have a TallTines bow already I’ll be covering any warrantee issues as previously offered.
