www.rerbows.com (http://www.rerbows.com) they make a one piece that starts around $500 you will not find a better performer out there. The 54"er shoots as smootha s any 62" bow out there. Shawn
Black Mountain Bows a sponsor here also makes static tip recurves and they are awesome performers.

Rivers Edge Recurves are Awsome
Look at Sovereign bows
Kempf Kwik Styk, was serious about ordering one a few weeks ago. Contacted Joe Skipp - great guy - unfortunately Mr. Kempf has had a price increase and I'm weighing options. Never-the-less may be affordable for your budget.
Thanks again for the posts. I looked at some of the earlier posts and they were recurves with static tips. I'm looking for a straight limb bow with static tips, like the old Slayer. I love the classic look of those bows. Thanks again.

Another vote for RER. You wont be sorry.
RER bows are tops in my book....
Jim Belcher Archery or Java!!!!just my 2cents:)
Does anyone know if any of the Bowyer's Bible editions covers statics? I would love to try and build on myself, just don't know how.
I checked out and spoke with Jim Belcher, he makes beautiful bows and is easy to talk to.

Sovereign bows.
Got my RER Arroyo static tip a couple of months ago . Brilliant :thumbsup: !!!!!!!!! I don't reckon fancy veneers and polish make a bow shoot better so I got his base model , nice hardwood riser , black glass bamboo laminations $ 425 .00
62 " long 43 # @ 28"
590 gr arrow ramin wood - 159fps from her
490 gr arrow - POC 176 fps
300 grain carbon - 213 fps
I am not one for chono numbers but I could not resist because my mate reckoned his 45 # gamemaster shot better - the RER was quicker with all arrows buy a few fps but more impressivly my bow does not stack and has only a minor buzz felt on release and shoots near as quite as my selfbows - Never been happier with a bow :clapper: . regards Jacko
Belcher Archery makes a great looking static recurve. Jim also makes the Massie "Longhorn" after buying the rights from Jeff Massie. He is a third generation bowyer with loads of experience.
the second or third edition of bowyers bible covers statics. i'm just finishing up an osage static. i'll post pics in a day or two.
that's great to hear slasher. I just bought the 2nd and third Bowyer's Bibles.
