I just picked up a 3 piece TD Mentor from the classifieds about a month ago. Excellent shooting bow. You won't be dissapointed in the least.
64" 52#'s@28" I'll see if I can dig up some pics to post.

I picked up this t/d Mentor used a while back cause I'd never shot a Wallace bow. I'm very happy with the bow and I'd buy another.They remind me a little of a Fox High Seirra or a Blacktail.
