I know I'm going to get in trouble for starting a thread without photos but I promise they will follow this evening.

4 weeks ago after much encouragement from Tater and Chromebuck I contacted Dan Toelke about his Lynx 3 piece longbow with his new HS limbs. What a fantastic gentleman who has a huge life long passion for archery. A few days later I decided to take a risk and order one. I say "take a risk" because I've never shot one of Dan's bows and realize that can be a huge mistake with buying any bow. Dan talked me through that dilemna and we came to an agreement. He also said the bow would be on my doorstep in 5 weeks, possibly sooner. Sooner is how it worked out!

Tim,

It sounds like a beautiful bow. I'll be looking forward to the pics and your assessment on how it shoots.

Congrats. Dan is a great guy to deal with and builds a top notch bow.

Tim I look forward to seeing your bow, sounds like a looker. I just wish you were still shooting left hand so I could try it out....Jerry

Now that one sounds beautiful Tim. Don't keep us waiting long.

tim, i have been eyeing that model for months. can't wait to see pics and then get your opinions on it.

im guessing the new HS limb is a little more r/d?

Can't wait to see and hear more about this one. Very high on my potential next bow list.

I can still count on my fingers (barely) how many bows I have bought from Dan and have owned (or am about to own) every model he makes except for 1. He is an amazing man and hopefully in another month I will get my skinned 2pc recurve.

The most truly custom bows I have ever owned. He has even tweaked them for me after I got them at extremely reasonable prices given the work required.

He and his son make bows fulltime which allows them to get them to you quickly.

Thanks Greaseman for turning me on to Toelke bows.

Your not home yet! I thought you only work half days this time of the year. (LOL)

ron w · « **Reply #17 on:** December 22, 2011, 02:44:00 PM »

I know I really like the Toelke that I have....can't wait to see the photos...

bdgr · « **Reply #18 on:** December 22, 2011, 03:09:00 PM »

I just got my bow from Dan yesterday. A 62" whip. Man, Man, Man, what craftmanship. The only drawback is that he got it to me too fast. I recently had carpal tunnel surgery and can't shoot anything for another two weeks!

Allright this is serious..! We need some pictures.!!.....

Please..
