Title: MT TURN........NEW TALL TINES!!!
Post by: A.S. on June 15, 2010, 10:24:00 AM
I finally got my new Tall Tines yesterday evening. I know several people have been anxious to see it, so I thought I'd post a few pics.

Riser is Ziricote, limbs are Myrtle. 49@27, she really smokes an arrow!!

Darn That Allen, he keeps getting these wrong handed bows that I can't try out...  I saw the chrono results boys and this bow is fast.  Not to mention how nice it looks.  I think Allen has got a keeper..  :thumbsup:

You did a great job on choosing the woods Allen.

Just beautiful. Some of nicest Myrtle I've seen.

Allen,

A terrific looking bow. I have enjoyed mine thus far. I am sure you will enjoy yours. I really like that dark chocolate brown riser and those blond Myrtle limbs really sets it off.

I ran some chrono numbers today with the Tall Tines, here is how it stacks up against some of my other bows that I have/had:

Tall Tines               49@27   183
DAS Master carbon/foam   49@27   183
ACS CS                   49@27   179
Morrison Cheyenne foam   50@27   183
Schafer ST               50@27   179
Black Widow PGA          50@27   177
Black Widow PSAX         51@27   181

These were all shot with the same arrow, using a clicker set at 27" draw.

Alan,
What arrow were you shooting??
Title: Re: MT TURN........NEW TALL TINES!!!
Post by: KentuckyTJ on June 15, 2010, 06:29:00 PM
Awesome Allen thanks. Confirmation of what I thought was happening.

Post by: joevan125 on June 15, 2010, 06:34:00 PM
Allen you old dog you, do you still have a ACS?

I just ordered a 66in 16in riser 45@28 with eastern diamonback skins to shoot at 3-D shoots but im sure it will see some hunting action.

By the way thats a great looking bow ya have there.
Title: Re: MT TURN........NEW TALL TINES!!!
Post by: A.S. on June 15, 2010, 07:05:00 PM
Joe, unfortunately I s  s   s  sold my ACS last fall.   :banghead:   That is the one bow that I truly miss.....maybe I'll fall into another one someday!


I just added the #'s for my DAS Master Hunter above also. It has top of the line Win & Win carbon/foam limbs. As you can see the Tall Tines holds is own right with the best of them!

All my bows have been set up and shot with my 8 strand D97 strings as well.

Allen,
What is the wood type in the trim stripe of the riser?
Title: Re: MT TURN........NEW TALL TINES!!!
Post by: DEATHMASTER on June 15, 2010, 08:27:00 PM
Beautiful.
You do have a eye for the nice ones.

What did you need to buy the wife for this one?

It will look even better in the deer woods.  :archer2:

Ahhhhh yeeeessss, the speed of those metal risered foam core carbon limb things with the beauty of a traditional recurve.  TallTines, the best of both worlds   :thumbsup:  

That is a beauty Allen!

I don't own a chrony, but I do own a barn full of bows. The Tall Tines has always seemed quicker to my eye....it's nice to see data on what I already suspected.

Brian should be shipping my new TT out next week.

I almost wish Brian hadn't told me. The next week will feel more like a month, now that I know he's getting close to winding it up.

Allen,
    Were you shooting FMJ 340 through the chrony? What was your setup?
Title: Re: MT TURN........NEW TALL TINES!!!
Post by: JT_IIIwitts on June 16, 2010, 03:07:00 PM
Nice man,  And the arrow is on my side of the riser.

Bring it to the ATAR so I can dwell on it.
Title: Re: MT TURN........NEW TALL TINES!!!
Post by: joe vt on June 16, 2010, 03:16:00 PM
that is a really pretty bow.


we are spoiled today with such beauties!!!!
Title: Re: MT TURN........NEW TALL TINES!!!
Post by: A.S. on June 16, 2010, 04:09:00 PM
Dan, I was shooting a Carbon Express Tunderstorm SE with 145 gr point for all the speed tests. It weighs just over 400 grains, so roughly 8 gpp for me.


Jason, I'll have it at ATAR for sure. I may even tote it up on the hill to show it off to you!!

LOL
