Title: Dale Dye Big Medicine?
Post by: Echo62 on January 23, 2014, 12:08:00 PM
Anyone have any experience with a One piece called the Big Medicine? Haven't been able to find any info on here.  Thanks

Yes, I had one that was about 15 years old, but sold it since it became too heavy for me.  Like all Dye bows, the grip fit like a glove and it was deadly quiet.  

Dale makes fantastic bows, but his wait for a new one is out of sight.  There are never too many of his used bows for sale.  

Check the big auction site as 3 Dyes just came up there today with fair buy-it-now prices too.

I agree with what Lon states. I had a gorgeous good shooter that I traded to Angelo and Bison Gear.

I have a one piece Swift Medicine that is a great shooter. I had been wanting one of Dale's bows for quite a while and finally found a used one with my specs just this past summer. Here's a few pic of mine.....

Great bows.  Someone is going to get some good medicine if they buy those bows off the big auction site.

Big Jim has a used Big Medicine listed for almost nothing on his site. Somebody please buy it and save me some money. Fred if you make it to Denton and bring that bow I would like to try the grip out as I have never shot one.

Dale is an amazing craftsman and every bow I've seen or owned is superb. There are a couple of Medicine Point bows that I've sold that I wish I had back. One of the very best shooters I've had was a Big Medicine one piece, 62@28" that was my go-to bow for a long time. Can't shoot that much weight anymore.

Dang, those one-piece bows are nice.  I have a beautiful TD from Mr. Dye but have really come to like one-piece bows.
