Title: TALLTINES PICS!
Post by: ghall80 on October 21, 2012, 03:33:00 PM
I know they are out there and I looked at all the posts I could find that had anything to do with Talltine bows! There is not alot out there and I am having a hard time trying make up my mind on the woods.

If you guys have them please post them up I would love to see whats out there.

Thank you Tradgangers

Here is one of mine! (http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/w372/ghall80/DMarchery009-1.jpg)

It looks like wenge(the dark wood} and bocote but not 100% certain...

That would be my Camo TT, big Mike Mitten with an all Bubinga, and Brian with a Dymondwood/Red Elm from bear camp in Manitoba.

Just reverse your wood combo.

A reverse of that bow is a fantastic idea.

Here is my long Cocobolo riser with Elm Burl limbs and Kudu tips

Post by: NormanDale33 on October 22, 2012, 09:25:00 AM
Wow Steve-O. That bocote is awesome, looks 3_d in the picture, can't imagine what it looks like in real life. TT are the only bows I think I have seen where the dymondwood looks as good as exotic. They sure are nice looking bows.
Title: Re: TALLTINES PICS!
Post by: YORNOC on October 22, 2012, 09:38:00 AM
Wow, that IS a tremendous bocote riser.
Here are a couple, and I agree with above. The dymondwoods look great.

I will also like to thank Brian at TAllTines archery he put the fun back into shooting for me. I was shooting maybe 30 arrows a day and it felt like another job! Know its all I can think about I shoot more then 60-70 arrows a day Sundays I take off from shooting. I love shooting this bow more then any other bow I have owned I have had at least 10 custom bows. Looking for the one that just was the best for me. And none of them made me feel this good about shooting and shot up my confidence more then this TallTines recurve.
THANK YOU BRIAN WESSEL!!!!!

Steve,57# @29" are they enough for that Kudu?
Title: Re: TALLTINES PICS!
Post by: Steve O on October 22, 2012, 06:24:00 PM
Felix, that will be plenty for Kudu,   especially in a TallTines.  If you have any worry I will bring a few extra Abowyer Brown Bears.  Just tell me how many grains you want them made up to be and right or left bevel.
