Made the plunge, here is my first trad bow
just spoke to Dan and has you fellows said, easy to talk to
its a Whip take down 35# at 29 64 inches long
will post pics when in my hands....
meantime I wish to thank all Trad shooters who were patience to keep up with me and all the questions asked
:clapper: :archer2:
Congratulations, You will be pleased I'm sure. What woods did you select?
I Gave Dan some extra money won't say how much
and Dan promise me something realy special
I am certain I will be please
I often tell people to tell the artist what you want and then let them apply their creativity...that is always a win/win situation if you pick someone like Dan...good thinking...you might actually go a bit longer before ordering another one so in the long run you could be saving money

Congrats! I just ordered my fourth bow from Dan last week.. I doubt that will be your last.. Great craftsmanship and super quiet. The wait won't be long either!
you guys are probably correct this may not be my last one
since joining this site I always love recurve but the more I learned on trad the more I got to love longbow
if you read all my post I was like a bird jumping from branch to branch
the deeper I got into the sport of trad the more I got really traditional I mean wood bows
my next challenge will be making wood arrow
now I make all my arrow myself
I got all the tool the paper tune arrows, draw board, press you name it
since we are on the subject of tool do I need a special tool to align nock on easton legacy arrow....or am I better to put unibushing?
I had Dan build me a Chinook a few months ago and after my experience I know when im ready to order a new bow it will come from Dan as well
thank you for good words
my first bow
Congratulations!! You will not regret it. I love my whip. One of the few I will never sell.
Congratulations Iam sure you will be pleased. Over the years, I've had nine Whips of one model or another and still have four that aren't going anyplace. Good people and a great product.
thanks again guys
eager to have it will post pics
