Got an email from Beth that Dave has finished my new Tip and it is in the mail to me.Wahoo! 56",macasser riser with koa flare, koa limb vaneers, sheep horn tips and sheep horn on the riser, plus a neat compass inbedded in the riser courtesy of my good friend Keith Zimmerman. This thing turned out awesome.
Gonna call her "Koa-dacious"

Mmmm me likey
Wonder if there is medicine to combat "tip addiction"?
Beautiful bow.
Purty fer sure!
Danny, as usual-AWSOME!
Very nice! One day...
Jake
That bow is flat out beautiful.
Congrats Danny,wery well designed! I am curious about that 56"
Yup! Another awesome Silvertip. Congratulations Danny.
Fantastic, Danny!
Very nice sir!!
Thanks everyone, I chose all the woods for this bow, Beth had the macassar in stock as well as the koa for the vaneers and I had the koa for the riser sent to her. I cannot wait for it to get here, my buddy Keith kept raving about his 56" Tip so I had this one made as a 56". Going to Texas with me in November.
Beautiful bow Danny! Best of luck with her!!!
Nice looking bow. What is your draw length? What is the riser length on this Tip? You don't see many 56" Tips, is Dave using a shorter riser or shorter limbs. Congrats, it really is nice.
very nice, has me thinking??
Mighty nice, Danny. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Beautiful bow..... WOW ;)
What a nice collection of Silvertips. You're a fortunate man, Danny. Good for you!
I hope u love that 56".....I love mine. And EVERBODY who has held it and shot it love it. My buddy who hunts KS with me shot it and ordered a 56". And I draw 29.5".
Enjoy the spotlight now because my decked out Tip will be here next week:) Ha! Just got a PM saying it was in the mail UPS.
That compass will help u find me next yr for our hunt in KS.
You have the nicest bows, Danny. And that's another one!
Very nice, I love the 56" part.
Paul,
If I remember correctly Dave takes 1" off the 58" riser and 1" off the limbs to get a 56" so I guess this riser is 14"
Keith you dog, LOL, I have seen the pictures you sent me and I am jealous, LOL.
Yep. 14" riser. I think there are maybe 3 or 4 in the US. Soon to be more. Our next bows will be the firsts by Dave ever. Only 10 more months for them. Those will be our LAST ones. Even Felix agreed.
Yes please I am going to bankruptcy, to stay ahead of you two. :biglaugh: :shaka:
Congrats, nothing like a Tip! Gotta love them.
Happy for you! Only 10-11 more months and my post will be talkin bout my tip!
I think I owned the 56" Ken has now. Sweet little bow. That is one I wish I would have held on to.
Danny - that koa is perfect. Love it!!!!
Sweet looking bow Danny !!! Congrats :clapper:
Bill
First class bow!
Very nice choice on wood combo. enjoy!
Danny, I love the horn overlays! Very nice. You have great taste in bows my friend!
Danny, 56" ain't gonna work for you...so put me #1 on the list..
Short bows don't work for everybody...!!
I draw 26"....it'll work for me..!!! LOL...!
Awesome bow..!!! Nice one Danny..!
Sweet bow! I really like those limbs! :thumbsup:
And Mr.Rowan hits another home run! Everytime the question of best eye candy comes up I immediately think of your silvertip known as "love potion #9". I haven't entirely reconciled yet that one man should have so many gorgeous works of art exclusively to him.
Of course, sitting here waiting on delivery of my own custom bow doesn't exactly help the situation.
A piece of fine art of a premium design would too stimulate my own anticipation.
Congrats!
Very nice Danny :thumbsup:
Very nice....congratulations!
Congratulations Danny... That is a great Silvertip! I really like the wood combinations.
Yeah, Keith and Felix, our next Tips has to be the last Tip for me, I too am going broke, LOL, besides I will retire in another 2 years so will not have as much money to play with. Gonna be some pretty cool bows.

Does that mean in 3 years some amazing bows will be available at blow out prices to finance other things in your retirement Danny? ;)
Not a chance Murray! :nono: :nono:
When you get older and have very little money having the patience and virtues of a Vulture can sometimes pay off !LOL. As I sit in the top branches of the snarly dead tree my crocked little neck and beady bloodshot eyes,I detect from an island called Gaum some unrest in a bow stable of beautiful Tips and Tines,there will be movement and I will be ready !
AWESOMEEEE looking bow Danny :thumbsup:
Hey Steve, I think your buddies are doing the same with you!LOL
Im glad nobody is watching mine:) LOL! Except for Danny.
:notworthy:
I like it I think the wood choice it supper! But Gosh darn it I love mine too.
Danny
My draw is right at 30"; could I get away with 56" Tip?
Love my first one which I received back in April. Took me all of 2-3 weeks to get back on "the list"... .
Thank you
Andrew
Andrew,
I do not know, best to ask Dave.
A fine looking bow you've got there MR!
Drew, u got my number. Give me a call.
hands down best bow Ive ever shot
I couldn't agree more
I love the compass.
Tick Tock. Did u get it yet? Still waiting for mine from NV.
Man, what a beauty !
I have been to this thread several times now.... I love this bow!
Not yet Bro. Takes at least 5 to 10 days to get to me here, I am on pins and needles.
If it doesn't fit and it is 55# or less, PM me!
It will Never happen Jed.LOL.Besides it is 57#
Nice wood choices. Beautiful bow.
UPS called. Gotta work today. I will pick it up tomorrow morning. Yeah!
It is here! Have not had a chance to open the package yet, but hopefully today after work we will get aquainted.
Post some good pics Bro! I got mine today. I will get some good pics for you to post.
That is stunning!!
Congratulations Dan
Nice bow Danny
Keith,
I cannot take better pics than what Beth sent me, my camera sklls leave a lot to be desired, but I will take some as I normally do while shooting it.
KZ
Let the photos fly brotherman
OH MY GOD!!!!
I put it together today and the pictures do not do this bow justice. and WOW, so smooth, I did not think a bow this short could be so smooth to my 29" draw with no pinch that I can tell. Only able to draw right now, cannot shoot cause it is raining, but I am impressed so far. To say I am happy is an understatement.
Awesome looking stick, Danny!
Bisch
"...cannot shoot cause it is raining"
It aint gonna melt Danny, get out there!
Told ya:)
Gorgious
That's a beauty!
These pics caused me to go look at their site last night and I think I've ironed out the details for a new one myself in gaboon ebony/snakewood with smooth sheep accents. Thanks for the push off the ledge :) I hope you enjoy this one like your others. It's a work of art! Thanks for sharing.
I hope you get the same kind of joy shooting your Silver Tip as I do shooting mine. Welcome to the club.
LOL, Brian, this is #4 on the rack and I have owned more than double that so I have been a member of the club for years. And they are all a true joy to shoot.
That's a beauty! :thumbsup:
Finally got to get aquainted with her.
This bow is AMAZING! Put on a LeftysRus B55 string. Got the brace and nock point correct and went to shooting.
First 4 arrows out of the bow were dead center in the target!
This little bow is dead in the hand and quiet as a mouse, and SO smooth out to my 29" draw, I still cannot believe how smooth it is for a 56" bow, it feels like butter coming back. And the arrow hits with authority.
I could not put her down. Shot for over an hour even though I had just worked the mid night shift at work and was kinda tired.
Dave knew what he was doing when he designed this little gem.
The Tip Master Keith Zimmerman was correct in saying I would love this bow.
LOL!! You crack me up Danny!
:bigsmyl: :bigsmyl:
'Tip Master??? I've heard Keith called a few things but that one is definitely a first!! Most of what I've heard him called or called him myself can't be posted here! LOL :laughing: He does have some pretty bows though as well as you too Danny. Congrats on this one! She is a LOOKER! Hope to be posting pics of my one piece in the next few weeks.
His words Randy, sent in an email to me, LOL. Thought I would use the phrase here to kid him a little.
