Title: Second Tip arrived
Post by: kat on February 05, 2012, 10:01:00 AM
I liked my new Silvertip recurve so much, I decided to get the three piece longbbow.
The specs are 53#@29" and 64" long.
The riser is charcoal diamondwood with quilted maple limbs that are stained Bubinga to match the riser stripe, and sheep horn tips.
Hope you like it as much as I do.

Thanks guys. I can't wait for you longbow guys to shoot it and let me know what you think.
I have only had time to throw a few arrows through it, but it looks like it bareshafts right with my recurves with the same arrows.
As always, I have no doubt this bow will well out perform its owner.

Sure wish I could take credit for the limb veneers, but the stain over the quilted maple was Dave's idea.
He sure makes a pretty bow.

Ken you will love the schafer longbow,and hate it because the rest of your bows will collect dust.I have been shooting mine for 5 years,I love it,arrows seem to go right to the good spot.I felt so bad for my other bows that this year I shot my shafer recurve and tall tines to blow the dust off them.All great bows,good luck!
