Well the mail lady finally arrived and dropped off 2 boxes today. As she handed them to my wife she says "I wish I were your husband cause he gets packages all the time"...going to have talk to her about keeping her thoughts to her self! My wife doesnt need any help in that department. Well any way...back to the 2 packages...1st one is little..thanks Tim at Braveheart for the snuffers.....now to the big box....Talltines recurve 62" 57# @ 29 1/2" Ziricote w/Bacote riser and Bacote limbs......she shoots as good as she looks also. Now I'm not a great shot by any stretch, I'd say average at best....buddy's may say not even average....took me about 30 arrows to get the feel. Shooting Griz Alaskans w 100gr brass insert, cut to 30.5" 4 feather with 160 gr snuffer w/125 gr steel insert. Can't wait to get her in the woods. Here are a couple pic's....arrows 28, 29, 30.

ron w....thats from my son's wheelie bow....he was aiiming for the deers nose....still trying to convert him....no luck yet!
Guys I can't speak highly enough about Brian's craftmanship.....top of the line! If you're thinking of ordering you better get on the list cause for the money he's going to get real busy.
Thanks again Brian!
Beautiful bow!
Looks like it shoots as good as it looks! Congrats and enjoy!
Dang! I thought I had a pretty bow. That is one sweet looking recurve ya go there. Good luck with it, stay safe and shoot straight. :thumbsup:
Wow! Talk about some character grain in those limbs. The accent strip really stands out as well. Great choice in woods. Just a beautiful bow. Congrats!
That is some good gravy! Very nice looking bow.
:thumbsup:
I could see me getting one of those. If only I could take a test drive. Brian said all of his stock bows are sold.
Well, looks like I'm on the couch again, boy she is really going to hate this one. Sweet looking TT!!!
That bow is a beauty. And your buddies say you are a less than average shot. Now I have a complex.
VERY NICE :thumbsup:
WOW! Beautiful bow. Some of the best looking bocote I've seen.
That is an awesome looking bow!!
I just ordered one today myself can't wait to try it out!!
I just need to decide what wood that I want????
Good to hear it arrived safe and sound. Now get her in the timber and let her do her thing!
that bow is a real looker! an shoots well too
WHOA! That is a beauty! You lucky guy!
Bona
Awesome!
Arrow Slinga--I took some nice Cocobolo out to Brian last week--that would be my pic!
That is a sweet bow for sure! I can see the Tall Tines bows becoming very very popular, and for good reason. Mr. Wessel is going to be a busy man.
That is a beautiful bow. I have been checking out Brian's website lately-may have to place an order before he gets too busy!
I love the knot grain at the base of each limb!
Steve o Thanks I am really thinking that cocobolo it the wood I want, thanks for the heads up! Is it cocobolo dymondwood or just regular cocobolo that you took out?
That's a beaut!
Boy,I like the looks of that grip. Very nice indeed!
SWEET!
Shooting in the rain today....don't think it's ever going to stop. Added a set of quiviut silencers and this baby is whisper quiet......don't have a chrony but it really spits an arrow out...really like the grip, it puts your hand right where it needs to be. Hopefully the rain will let up so I can get in the stand or blind this evening....would really like to shoot something other than foam.
Arrow Slinga,
I took out some regular Coco, but I would not hesitate to get the Coco Dymondwood. With either, I would ask Brian to put them with some of his Waterfall Bubinga vaneers.
BTW--I worked at the GM plant in Adrian for 10 years!
Beautiful wood combo,sweet!
man, I love it too. Great lookin girl there to tote around the hills!
