Just had another Great conversation with Dan, fellas, I've been around this game for many years, talked to the finest of the finest and when your done talkin to Dan, you learn somethin every time, this Man is truely on top of his game and a World of Knowledge when it comes to archery and especially Bow Building ....
I know I am "Whip"ped.
I probably should just set him up on direct deposit.
Great summation Adam.
Dan knows how to build em and how to shoot em.
Definitely a wealth of knowledge.
Great guy, outstanding bows...and like you said, you always learn something useful when talking to him.
Dan's bow are the only bows that I shoot, he a mountain of knowledge and is a great person, love my Toelke's
ya'll need to stop making these Toelke posts. Ive been fighting the urge for another classic whip and this sure isnt helping.
I just got a Chinook, and am real happy with the workmanship in their shop. Not only that, but the turnaround time is short enough that I had to scramble to fund the bow, as it was done before I could start saving up for it! It was well packed, cost a fortune to ship, and had two strings and a bunch of extra stuff with it, too. Ready to go, just add arrows!
Dan and Jared are one heck of a team. Now I need to try a Whip.
Killdeer :thumbsup:
I readily admit to being a "shameless Dan Toelke fan" and that has come about over a few years and Dan making me more bows than anyone deserves to have. Each of them has been superbly crafted of beautiful woods and a pleasure to own and shoot and the longest I have waited from order to delivery has been 29 days. In addition to being a superb craftsman, Adam has hit the nail on the head about Dan being a world of knowledge concerning all things archery. He is a master of form and technique and I am still amazed at how much he has taught me over the phone and by the fact that he always has time to help and still run a full time custom bow operation. I would add that in addition to all this, Dan and his son Jared are two of the best people you will ever deal with.
I just got my New T/D Chinook. This is Toelke #6, Of which I still have 5. I too am a "Shameless Fan of Dan's" I am going to all Takedowns so I am having to thin out my collection (Sadly). In any case, I Love his Bows, and there is not a greater guy out there. Tu Compadres, Sutty
Just so you know, it's an unspoken law around these here parts that if you mention a Toelke bow, you have to show some pictures. :)
Dan is the man i every way shape and form. went up to his place for something to do on my birthday. Jared and Dan took me fishing and had a great time.Picked up my new Whip I got myself. Since I sell the black glass Whips from my shop I have been desiring an ALL BLACK Whip. Dan used the sheaths from my ewe I shot a few years back for the tip over lays and some of the sheath for the belly portion of the riser. He left the texture to it. I must say this bow is outstanding and exactly what I had deep inside my twisted brain. She is named "Midnight Assassin" I been "Whipped" to death me thinks. its all I shoot!
