Does anyone have any pics of Dave's T/D or one piece longbow they would like to share? I am going to order one but I am waffling as to get the T/D or the one piece.

Jim,

That Silvertip longbow is a well kept secret.  Very nice bows.  I've always wanted to get a one piece and have is cut in half to retrofit a Warren Bow Bolt into it.  I did that with a Morrison Cougar longbow last year.  My opinion; that Warren Bow Bolt is the nicest takedown system in the industry.  You might want to consider that option too.

I owned a 62" TD checkered grip.  Very smooth, whisper quiet shooting bow.  Should of never sold it.

The only thing I did not like was the take down system.  It was a solid system but I didn't like the exposed metal parts when travelling with it broken down.  They accidentally rubbed together when they were being transported and I took a chunk out of the side of my handle and scratched the crap out of it.

That is why I like the Black Widow Locket-Socket system so much.  Simple, strong and effective.

JMO,

Skinner.

the Silvertip longbow is the best...ever... for me of course ! the only R/D bow I want to shoot until I die!!
I have a 1piece 64", 60#@27".
I will get a 60" Tdown around 50-55# soon for cold weather shooting. the handle is absolute bliss

I have the second takedown longbow Dave made and my brother has the third.  I love the bow and use it a couple of times each year for hunting.  It is my favorite glass longbow and if I wasn't addicted to building selfbows it would be my primary hunting bow.  It is fast, stable, and forgiving.  My only complaint is that he wouldn't use anything but actionwood for the handle when we got ours but I believe he has changed that policy.

couple more for you bud Dave is also doin a new three peice longbow that really looks great!







im not sure if Dave does it in a bow-bolt option but if he does i would recomend that, just simply because i think it is the best take/down system.

hope this hepls you out mate.

cheers Andy

Andy? You got another new toy? Jeez! You're getting as bad as me!  :D  :D

lol thats my dads ! lol
thats what happens when you cant hunt here in the UK, all the money goes on bows  

Thanks andy that is exactly what I was looking for for a picture.

I am not fond of the connection hinge. The one bow I had with it,  I could not get comfortable wirh. Does anyone have a pic of the new three piece he is working on?

Dave & Beth have the new 3pc longbow for sale as we speak. They had some at Denton Hill and did have 1 or 2 available.

there you go mate!



i love the look of the new three piece, matter of fact i love all the silvertip bows  :D

Hmmmm...that looks like I could get a set of longbow limbs for my riser...hmmmmmmmmmm

Well, I now know what the next bow will be that I am going to order! Thanks for the pics    

After seeing the pics of Dave's 3 piece TD longbow I'm thinking of changing my order since I already have a Silvertip TD recurve.  Does anybody know if Dave is making them in 60 or 62".

He is offering them in 60"-66" lengths. There are built standard for FF. as far as i know but you better check with Dave,

cheers Andy

Is it a longbow specific riser or can the limbs fit on a Silvertip recurve riser?

it looks like as if the LB limbs fit on the silvertip TD riser, is it the case ?

im not sure about that guys maybe someone else could help with that, it would make sence to make the limbs interchangable.
