    What ya think of these? If this company was closer I'd make the drive and check them out 1st hand. I really like the looks of these recurves but I'm a little worried on the shorter risers that they have. I know nothing of shorter risers, every recurve I've shot has had longer risers then these. Will they shoot different because of It?:confused:

    Steve those are some fine looking bows. I wish I knew more about the benefits of the takedowns. Some of the woods that are used makes for a beautiful bow. There are a lot of technical aspects of these woods that I have heard "is what makes the bow".

    Prices are nuts aren't they!!:rant: Every riser on the recurves I've shot have been In that 17 to 19" range. I've never shot anything with a shorter riser, probably wouldn't know the difference but thought I'd ask.

    Longer riser gives a more stable shooting platform.;)

    Thats exactly what I was thinking, I always thought these were a high dollar bow! $575, not bad..... :huh: then I saw the price for the limbs!:deer:

    Not a bad looking bow at all. I heard there shooters!
