Title: Tall Tines grip
Post by: Dry Creek on December 07, 2014, 05:12:00 PM
Hey guys,
Wondering if some of you Tall Tines owners could post some pictures of your grip? Would love to see some of the low, medium, and the high wrist grip.
Thanks

I'm having issues downloading pics, but the TTs grip is what makes the bow for me.  its as if it was made from a mold of my hand!  I have two, on with checked grips and the others not. I'd say They're both a med wrist grip.

I asked Brian to custom make the riser for my longbow.  I am picky with what I like, and once my hand grabbed the finished riser, I didn't want to put it down.  Best feeling and most accurate bow I have ever owned...tthere have been quite a few before, but none after.

I believe he will custom tailor the grip however you would like it also.

I believe 99.9% of guys would be better off sticking with his standard grip. Guys gotta mess with what works though...

I have a pile of them but all I can show you is standard grips.

I REALLY like the looks of that bow/grip on the left that Mike just posted. I think I better find one to try!

Circumference of my standard grip is 4 3/4" at the throat, and 6 3/4" at the heel.

I have a medium size hand, and the grip fits perfectly.

I hope Santa is bringing SOMEONE a nice Thunderhorn quiver for Christmas!

I had Brian do a low checkered grip on my last TallTines and it is perfect for me.  I am having him build a second set of limbs for it now.

D.P.

Honduran Rosewood, and Spalted Maple accent. The limb veneers are Myrtle.

All four of my Tall Tines Recurves have his low, checkered grip.  Feels better in my hand than his standard grip.  But that's just me.  The first two that I ordered from Brian were his standard grips and were not checkered.  I ended up sending them back to be lowered and checkered.  The next two were ordered with the low grip.  Brian's checkering is outstanding and compliment the Tall Tine's grip exceptionally well.
