Greg Coffey, Java Man bows Jason Kendall, Kanati bows, Ron LaClair's Shrew bows.  All are great shooting bows.

My toelke pika is super smooth and quick. The build time is about a month too!

One thing to consider is that a 58 inch static tip will effectively be about the same length as a shorter d/r bow.

I just pick up a Pika from Dan Toelke 56"I draw 29" it is very smooth. You wouldn't go wrong with any of the mentioned above.

Leon Stewart makes his Little Slammer at 56".
My 60# has remarkable cast.

Another good one which is very reasonably priced is Rich Emery's Stikbow.  I have one that is 54".
