Title: T/D Recurve Pics Please!
Post by: Wannabe1 on January 15, 2012, 08:59:00 PM
Ok, I did the search thing but, would like to have a thread for take down recurves. Got a bug in me and might be making the switch from predominately longbows to a t/d recurve and want to see some different styles. Thanks in advance...and NO BASHING ME you longbow guys, I'm sick!!    :D

Here's my Toelke Lynx 58", 51# @ 28"
And if the you can't shake the bug, you can always get longbow limbs to put on the same riser.

Chek-mate hunter 1 take down

62" 54lbs@28 inches

Walnut and Maple riser, elm limbs.  the older it gets the richer the colors have gotten.  These pictures are from my first year hunting with it, I had my string unwrap before I took the picture, so yes I have fixed the brace height.

OK - I guess I won't bash you.  It's never nice to pick on a sick person.

I'm a longbow guy, but I'll admit, these sure are some pretty bows.

My advise is always to look for a used boe here in the classified and then sure some sponsor here offer some incredible bows for a really fair price.

You could possibly go the ILF route also pretty inexpensive.

Zipper SXT 55#, 58".  The osage has really mellowed out and darkened and the tulipwood has turned a brighter, deeper red.  The accent stripes are zircote. Bullsnake skins and antler limb tips.

Thanks folks, I'm working on some ideas.

Bill: your in the top 4!    :D

Actually, I should say top 3. The number one spot being reserved for the off chance that something in my specs and likes shows up in the Classifieds.

Man, what a head spinner!
I'm on the Zipper list, so this ISN'T helping!
Danny and Cacciatore - what can you say? For me The lefties win as I can see them in my hand, but that's the only reason.
Great thread.
