Silvertip Proves Worth The Wait

[Kevin Dill]

Well, it's been a long time coming. Probably ordered this bow 14 or 16 months ago. I've been holding out for the right wood, and it finally came together. I figured the  true Silvertip junkies might be interested in seeing it. I received this one-piece Silvertip from the Windauers just a day ago. Today I shot a few pictures. Please forgive: my composition and lighting are not ideal. Some pics used flash, while others didn't. I'll let you guys guess at the woods...
Feel free to ask any details you'd like.
I've got additional pics, and might post them later if anyone is interested....

Riser shedua and limbs Koa?  Looks like a Cocobolo stripe?

[YORNOC]

Man, absolutely stunning. Good for you!

[Bryan Burkhardt]

I think I have a pretty good guess...looks great Kevin!

How about some specs Kevin? Most beautiful bow!! One piece is my favorite.

[cacciatore]

Kevin,I bet the riser is Macassar.
Not sure about the stripe and the veneers because the light.mmm If the limbs are Koa they are darn good,but it could be also some kind of Cocobolo,also if beth has never sent me a pic of such wood on the limbs.Very nice sheep overlay.

All I see are boxes with red x's in them.

Awesome bow  

[Orion]

Now That is a pretty bow.  I'd guess macassar in the riser as well.

Nice bow, looks like a great job on the checkering. Congratulations.

That is a dandy, love the checkering.

[billy shipp]

Macassar riser, Curly Koa limb veneers is my guess. Whatever it is, it's another Windauer masterpiece.

The horn overlay is really nice.

[Brad Davis]

Now I can see them. Dont know what happened earlier. Wow! That grip looks like it would put the arrow right on top of your hand. Could you post pics of the tips? Is that polished sheephorn? I have two of Daves TD's but would love to have a one piece. Maybe someday...

[Kevin Dill]

I knew all of you guys were good! The limbs are koa. The riser is a pretty rare piece of shedua, with a cocobolo lam down the middle. Polished sheep horn tips and front overlay. The grip area has a hidden compartment which holds an extra string, compass, neck knife and....

okay, kidding about that compartment thing.

This bow is so different from the TDs I own. Much more delicately sculpted than pics would suggest. It is very light in the hand. 60" bow. 54# @ 28". More pics to follow.

Wow! That is a beauty; and worth the wait!
