Title: 3pc Silvertip Longbow(pics)
Post by: Anvil on April 18, 2008, 11:49:00 AM
I recently had a 3pc Silvertip longbow on loan from the Windauer's. I will say it is a fabulous bow, well mannered, fast, smooth and stable. Easily one of the finest bows I have had the pleasure of shooting. The Windauer's are wonderful people to deal with as well. Here are some pics:

Bjorn, I tried the 1pc last year, great bow but this 3pc has it all. That is, of course, subjective to what you like in a bow.
Leopard, how are you liking that Wolverine?

Anvil,

I'm loving the Wolverine! It's almost like the bow was built just for me!  :D  It draws really smooth, and really throws an arrow! I absolutely love it! Dave does some amazing work!  ;)   :thumbsup:
