Title: ST.Joe Rivers New 56" Recurve
Post by: Bow man on March 21, 2010, 07:13:00 AM
We told a bunch of people at Kalamazoo that we were working on this one to compliment our new 54" Recurve  
We have completed our pro-type 56"  Recurve and it came out perfectly. it will make it's  debut in Nashville Next week at he PBS banquet

If you are wondering what's next from us we should have our 2 pc. take down ready for Comptons

This one is Red Elm Babinga and walnut

Great looking bow. Love the riser construction. How long of a draw will it handle?
