Very nice bows.  Fast and quiet.  I had one but the grip was too big.  The Fedora's are great people and will take care of you.

I believe the 3 piece bow is called Xtreme. Its reflex-deflex take-down longbow. I have one that is 56" with a 12" riser. Its very stable and quick. Mine is 47# at 28"

Mike, Jason and Carol are wonderful people. Mike is great to work with, knows his craft and is genuinely interested in getting you the right set up. He offers great advice, especially in matching his bows to the right arrow.

Mine is 64" stripped ebony limbs and hand picked cocobolo 12" riser 63# @ 31" and a second set of limbs 57# @ 31".
A wonderful bow and the best bow grip ever handle for me.

Sold an extreme in December.  Nothing bad about the bow (just wanted back into recurves).  Echo all stated above.  Throat of grip is a little on the lage size.. 5 7/8 if i remember correctly.

Super people to deal with !!  Good luck!

That's what I'm looking for. What kind of wood is in the riser? Thanks.

I believe it's Brazilian Rosewood...check with Iron John though he may know exactly as he originally ordered it. Here's a few more pics!
