Mike, Claude is going out of business from what I hear. Now might be a good time to contact him.

Rick, give me a call. I may have a contact for you as well.

Thanks everybody,I ended up going to Greybarr trad archery in Williamsfield only about a 40 minute ride.He has a ton of used recurves and longbows.I shot around 15 different bows,recurves and longbows...I ended up buying a bear grizzly recurve from the 70s,45# @ 28",I loved how it felt and it shot where I pointed.Dan Lorinz  was great,very patient and helpful and also good prices.Thanks arrowk9 for pointing me in the right direction.Only one bow I liked better and that was a black widow at about 700 bucks.A little out of my price range.thanks again,Ricky
