Title: Dan is starting on my new bow today
Post by: chris K. on January 01, 2013, 01:47:00 PM
I don't know when it will be done but it has be started.  I am really excited about this one. Osage limbs and cocobolo riser super d should be sweet looking.

Just walked in from shooting my Super D. It is the number 1000 bow out of Dan's shop, Macassar Ebony/Zebrawood and I've never shot a better-mannered bow or one as quiet. If Dan has started your bow you won't have a long wait. He has made a number of bows for me and the longest time from order to delivery was 29 days. Be sure and post some pictures of yours, I don't recall seeing many Toelke bows with Osage Orange, it should be a beauty and I know how well it will shoot. Congrats.

I don't know that I have either. I remember seeing one of his 52 inchers with an osage riser and bocote limbs. I am thinking he told me that he has never built a Super D with osage. Pretty pumped about it and I will surely post pictures when it comes in. I have had several my self and never waited longer than 3 weeks.

It will be smooth as butter, and a beauty to boot.

Dan doesn't mess around when building a bow.  You should have it shortly.  Post up pics when you get it.

Afraid your going to have to wait!  I just sent my baby in for a once over and refinish.  Had a nock go on me when shooting my T/D chinook the other day.  Everything looks ok but it has a vibration now I couldn't figure out.  Needed a refinish anyhow so I boxed it up and send it home to Dan.  Really hope he can get her fixed up or I'll be the most heartbroken fella on tradgang.
