I just received these photos from Sue at RER. My new LX is on it's way. It's 62" and 42#@28. :bigsmyl:

Here we go, I received my LX today! Whip was right, pictures just don't do it justice. This thing is beautiful! I put the string on it, went downstairs and shoot a few arrows though it. The bow felt good grouped well with no tuning at all. I had a 6 strand D97 string I purchased from Bobby Graham waiting to be put on. I put on the string and a few strands of wool for silencers. The brace was close so I set the nock point where I thought it should be. The first shot hit very close to the dime size split ring I shoot at. The second shot hit close as you can see in the picture. Kevin makes one of the best and workmanship is outstanding. Oh by the way, did I say I like my new bow. :goldtooth:

Great looking bow. I also shoot 42#. You'll love that weight.
niiiiiiice!!!
Outstanding bow!
Beautiful bow,nice looking woods!
Absolutely Beautiful
Verrrry nice!!
Awesome! What wood combo is that?
I'm guessing curly maple with either rosewood or cocobolo in the riser and quilted maple limbs.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
WOW !
Nice Bow :thumbsup:
I have an LXR....you will be very happy.
Kevin is a master at his craft, and builds a bow that shoots every bit as good as they look.

The woods are cocobolo and maple but I can't remember what Kevin called it. I'm fairly new to this and don't know about the different wood names. I just know what I think looks good. :thumbsup: I think Whip saw it while it was being finished, he might remember what Kevin called that kind of maple.
You're going to love it!
I have a 43# LX and it's so smooth and easy to shoot, I feel like I'm cheating!
I 2nd Billy and Boom's comments!! I have a Vortec and recently received my LXR with both the longbow and recurve limbs. It shoots like a dream !! I'm also ordering the new CX 13" riser,that too is going to be a great bow.
Have fun!!
Rick
The maple in the cresent flare is curly maple, and on the limb laminations it is maple burl. Beautiful!
Very nice :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Sweet bow, as of last night I now own 5 RER bows. I just bought an LX last night in all Bacote. Sue shipped it today!! Congrats on one of the finest shooters out there!! Shawn
Very nice. I like the Curly Maple and Cocobolo combination.
Can't wait to get my LXR. Kevin glued up the Riser last weekend. Mine will be a Ziricote Riser with a Figured Aniegre Crescent, and Olive Ash Burl limb vaneers.
Hope it looks as good as yours, I'm sure it will as Kevin, Sue, and Family do awesome work.
WOW, that is one beauty of a bow you have there! Man, thats sweet!!!!!!!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Don't forget to tell us all about it when you get it! Love those bows! :clapper: :goldtooth:
Update! Page one.
I didn't think you could get that much penetration with a 42# bow.... :D
These threads make me SICK!
OK....I ordered mine today and "I" have to wait!....lol
Congrats! That is one beautiful bow!
Looks like that bow is going to cost you a lot more than you originally thought if you keep doing that to your arrows!
Very cool! Better switch to a 5 spot target!
:D
