Ben, how do you like it? I have a three piece and love it, but I love the feel of a one piece.

Yes that sure is a nice bow  :thumbsup:  BUT I do not believe there is a even marginal Schafer out there. They all shoot like they look...deadly     :archer2:

I really like my three piece, but I would like to try a one piece. My money is kind of tight and I know I like the take down. I'm having a hard time making up my mind. I'm gonna order after the first of the year....I hope! Maybe by then I'll have my mind made up.

Thanks guys for the pics, Jason

Covey, I like it a lot! I actually sold my three-piece, as despite some wins, I couldn't shoot it well. I can shoot this one well.

Beautiful bows on this thread.

My all time favorite! Bacote and the infamous camo limbs

Here are a few I have owned/own
Antler tips, antler overlay on front of the riser. 58" bow, flat out smokes and arrow. I prefer the 58" over the 60" above and below.

For Stykbowslim and Easykeeper...

The riser wood is fancy piece of shedua with a cocobolo lamination.

The limb veneers are Hawaiian koa.

Shedua , is one of my favorite woods, light and strong!
Title: Re: Any one piece silvertip pics?
Post by: Covey on December 12, 2011, 05:12:00 PM
Limbow, may I ask how long your draw is? I draw my bow to 30" and was curious about the 58"r. Threre are some nice lookin bows floatin around on here.

Thanks for the pics guys, Jason
Title: Re: Any one piece silvertip pics?
Post by: Kevin Dill on December 12, 2011, 05:32:00 PM
I agree with you Sergio...I also think it's one of the more under-appreciated woods these days. Finding a really well-figured board seems tough for most bowyers. I've had a few shedua bows and I've always liked that warm tawny gold.

Post by: Bishop on December 12, 2011, 06:34:00 PM
All the bows in this thread are beautiful but that shedua just "Pops" out at me.

Took me a long time to get a Silvertip.........Now that I see the one piece I may have to start the search for one of them also!    :banghead:      And I was trying to thin the bow rack down!   :dunno:

Here's three that I owned awhile ago, but sold one of them- now regretfully.

Jason,

My draw is 28" on my best days and 27" on my worst. I prefer the 58" over the 60". It seems to have more zip. I also like the smaller grip Dave does on the 58" bow. Hope this helps.

Kevin
