Title: Schafer Silvertip options
Post by: Gooserbat on January 13, 2012, 04:05:00 PM
I'm looking at getting on "the list" and one option I've never seen is the radius stripes in the handle of a recurve(3 pcs) If I could get a few guys to post up a few pictures I would be forever thankful.

Radius stripes?  Do you mean accent wave or does Dave do a curved stripe instead of his usual srtaight?

Are you talking about the flare? If so there are a few on here.

Yep radius stripes not the flare. I called Beth and she emailed me a pic.  It looks pretty sharp but after I looked them over it's just not classic Silvertip.

I have one on order and it will have the radius stripe.   Cost more than straight accent stripe, but less than the flare.

smooth, stable, fast and, beautiful, no matter what the woods and stripes and flares. I highly recommend the checkering.

I second the checkering on these fantastic bows!It is right whatever you choose you'll have a first class bow,I like all the designs but the flare is my prefered or the classic straight line.

Definitely get the checkered grip. I could not imagine mine without it. They are absolutely awesome bows!

Just in case it hasn't been mentioned, get the checkered grip.

I think a checkered grip is in order.  I'm looking at a charcoal riser with quilted maple  limbs, fast flight and checkered grip.  Not a super fancy bow but one that's still nice to look at.  Oh yeah 62"  56@30"

Same woods and poundage of one of mine just different lenght.I wanted my quilted maple dye of the same color of the riser and I call it black knight.

But for me it would be better looking with the strip dyed with the same as the limbs!
Man,you'll love it your new Tip.

Actually the bow is darker of what you see in the pics since they were taken at full sunlight.

Gooserbat - Would you be willing to post the pic of the radius stripe Beth sent you? I too have one on order and would like to compare the wave stipe with the basic radius flair...
Thanks, Steve
