Got a 58" longbow.  Sorry but I don't have any pictures of it handy.  Got another one on the way.  Niel builds a very good bow!

Compared to most folks on here I haven't shot a lot of bows.  When I shot a Bear's Paw, I knew that it was the bow I had been looking for.

I have only shot a friends, And it was a seventy five pounder. What a bow and the grip is the most comfortable I have ever shot.

Nice bow and Neil seems like a great guy, Good luck.

I have one of Neil's 3 piece TD longbows.  It pretty much has everything I am looking for.  It is smooth drawing, has no noticable hand shock upon release, quite, and speedy. His craftsmanship is 2nd to none.  And as mentioned above, Neil is great to work with.
