Those are some great looking bows. I've always liked Dale Dye bows but could never afford one. Same with the Morrison's. That's the first time I've ever seen bright pink and chartreuse string silencers.

All 3 Dyes were bought used and I had Dale refinish them and build us some limbs that are our draw weight and draw length. Two of the Dye recurves were originally 58" bows and one was a 60". The 58" bows are now a 60" bow. (Wife's) and a 62", the 60" bow is now a 64".  I was able to sell the old limbs to help fund the new limbs. Dale did a great job and we are very pleased with the way these bows shoot. The 18"short riser 62" is my favorite and it's the bow in my avatar pic.  Dale Dye & Bob Morrison are both great gentlemen to deal with. You really couldn't go wrong either way.

Well MO. deer season is open and I have settled on hunting with the ebony 64". I'm shooting a 550gr. carbon tipped with a Centaur archery 2 blade head and I'm also using the string silencers Centaur sells. I like these heads and string silencers alot. When it cools off I'm eager to get in the woods and hunt!

I use goldtip shafts with 100 gr. brass inserts and woodsman heads, the differance in the heads is that some are the newer non vented ones. Don't really know how much the whole set-up weights and I have no idea about the FOC thing. This combination has served me well and flies good from most of my bows, so I stick with it.
