    So I just called, its a 56 at 28 ... 62 long.. But only has "Fox" and "R.KING" written on the bow ..nothing else. Bill is researching it for me now..

    I just put money down on it.. he's holding it for me..

    Shed, did it have a lot of R/D in it or was it basically a straight limb bow?

    Maybe we should let her "simmer down" a little before we call!:d

    Ya know shed, if Ryan was a real pal, he'd bring out 4 or 5 bows with him this way the wife can witness first hand your not the only one with this problem????:cool:

    I believe you are looking at one of the bows shown on their website. The Artic Fox, Cross Fox, or Red Fox... Heck, it may even be a hybrid that isn't listed. Sounds like a cool bow.

    The Triple Crown and Royal Crown both have pretty big risers, almost like a recurve. That is why they are sought after, for the mass weight in that riser.

    I can't say I've ever heard anything bad about any of their bows. I'm ready to see the pics!

    Sorry guys, back for a bit, teaching class today is getting in the way of my archery talk..:confused: anyway, I will get pix out as soon as I pick up the bow...

    Double I think your right, even though I cant see the Fox archery site here at work I am pretty sure this bow made by Ron King is one of Foxes newer longbow models artic,cross,red etc. .. I remember those bows you referenced above; when viewing their site before...
