What's the bow's spec's (length and poundage)?

Thanks guys.


Longbow limbs are 62" and the recurve are 60". I ordered 48# @28" and Kevin said they came in a bit over 48# with the longbow limbs being a few ounces more than the recurve.

Joe has the best looking bows in the world.  With his eye for woods and such he should actually be in business.  Think I'll just call him up the next time I'm ordering and let him pick everything out.  :notworthy:

I am gonna have many sleepless nights between now and when it arrives. I am getting a 53 at 27 in a 58 inch bow. Yours sure looks sweet!!!! Tell us how it shoots!!! Also what all came with it I forgot to ask Kevin. Happy shooting!!!!

Joe, nice looking bow. I like the matching laminations. Maybe you'll let me shoot it at the barn this winter?   :smileystooges:
