I just got my new Tall Tines bow, and its the best one yet. Brian out did himself with this one. Last year when I was in Hawaii, I was at a flea market and come across a wood dealer and bought two pieces of Koa wood. I thought it would be great to have a bow made from that wood from the island. I wasn't sure how good a piece it was but soon after he had it Brian said it had great grain and color. I'll be taking it to Iowa with me this year as I drew one of those sought after tags. I'll get some pictures together so you can see how nice it is.
Will be impatiently awaiting pics!!!!!
Sweet, bring on the pics! I have a 2nd hand TT and love it! Congrats on the Iowa tag, I'm going to have to miss out this year :/
:campfire: :campfire: :campfire:
Ok, this is just wrong. Thursdays and Fridays have to be off the list for teasers. :coffee: :coffee:
Man i will be on this post all day hitting refresh. ha
Yeah, where are the pics? Let us know the specs too. Congratulations, and thanks in advance.
A double post. Don't know why that keeps happening.
Man Gary. You DIDN'T mention that the other day on the phone. Remind me to never play cards with you. Your way to good at holding in the excitement.
Please bring it along this weekend, i would love to see it. I almost went with Koa on my TT, but opted for Macassar Ebony instead. I'm positive yours is beautiful.

And this ^^^^^^^^^ is why one should not make posts without checking with their "technical advisor" first if they are not capable of posting their own pictures :knothead:
Gary and I ordered another set of LH/RH TallTines twins with his Koa wood. Brian made some sweet wave risers with Koa and Wenge and put one of his awesome checkering jobs on. I have some custom T/D knobs ordered for them and wanted to
WAIT UNTIL THEY WERE COMPLETELY DONE before putting up any photos.
Right now this is all I have:

And am not sure when I will have time to take more. I am sure Gary will have his laying on a big Iowa buck by the time November rolls around though.
Well That Sucks!!! What a teaser shot
I feel bad Gary hosed you guys like that. All I can do now are some iPhone pics of mine. They are long riser medium limb models for 62" bows. Mine is 53# @ 28" and I draw 30".

Great looking bow,Steve.Fantastic wood combination,I like the dark wood outers and the lighter wood as central flare.
I really like the looks of the Koa. Now I'm already thinking of getting on the waiting list for another.
Purty!
Sweet!

You are going to have to pick another wood. BW does not stock Koa. This was a very special order and Gary only brought back enough for our two bows. I may end up taking this one to Africa next year just so the Chimaster is there with me.
Love seeing pictures of Tall Tines' bows. They are always so pretty.
Sweetx2!
That's a gorgeous bow! I love the way Brian's bows look and shoot. If only I could get used to his grip. :\\
Looking great!! :thumbsup:
Man that's nice! Love those checkered grips!
Another hard hitting Masterpiece!!!!!!!!!!!
Man. I believe wessel gets better and better each bow he crafts. I am definitely on the hunt for wood now. I'm ready to order another. I really want to skin one but his veneers are so good at hard to fathom. Awesome bow Steve O!!!!
nice wood combo - love the koa!!
That's just too pretty! I like the artwork on the bolts! Who made that?
Kenn Paulson made the engraved bezels. His handle here is 1screagle. I'll definitely post some shots of the twins together when he has the take down knobs done. He is just branching out into metal. Typically he carve stuff like this in granite!

That's the best part of ordering a custom bow...Brian is VERY accomidating if you are wanting to make some changes as long as it will not interfear with the integrity of the bow. Custome service is top shelf with Tall Tines.
Great looking bow!! Love to wood combo.
Steve, that is a great plaque. I really miss Daniel after seeing that. Mike
I'm glad Steve O. came to my rescue, I didn't know I was hosing anyone. I was just excited to talk about the new bow. Now that Steve has got some pics up we'll have to get the twins together for some more photos. By the way, the bow looks great against that bear back drop Steve. I hope I can get one like it this coming spring at Ryan"s camp.
Chimaster , you and Steve have a coupl sets of twin bows. It would be cool to get them all together someday for a photo op. Nice lookin bows. Mike
Got to see Chimaster's Tall Tines in person today at the bow club today. That Koa is some real nice looking wood!
Nice looking doesn't even come close to explaining it Mouse. That Koa wood was flat out spectacular. I really wish I had gone with that on the last one. It definately WILL be in my next one.
Everybody is talking bows and other stuff ... I think I like that bear and the mount better. :)
Chuck,
The bear also needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. I helped move the bear into SteveO's trophy room. The head on that thing looks like a grizzly!
I can imagine Mick... Terrific bear for sure. Hope all is well with you and your family. I miss those old MTB days.
That's a beauty..ENJOY IT and hope you stick a bruiser in Iowa with it!!
