56", 54 at 28", Asbell grip.  Bolivian Rosewood riser, Tiger Mrytle limbs.  One overlay says "Enjoy the Journey" and the other has a pic of a spider.  And yes, PCHX

I first read that as 10ft. I said how long of a bow is this. Had to re-read it.  Congratulations on a beautiful bow.  (not a spear)

Ah, the short bow and so beautiful too. That was nicely presented. Great combination of woods.

Shot a few, and she shoots great!!   Very stable, quick....but then it is a Widow.  Seems lighter than 54 lbs.   I need to do a little work, not much, but some getting it quite. Very happy with my newest Widow.

That is a very nice bow. I love your wood choices. I'd love to shoot one of these in a very short (54") configuration to see if it would be smooth and a terrific blind bow for turkey.  Mrytle is one of my favorites -- I have it on footed riser and limbs of Blacktail Elite VL.

Very nice.....ok I might as well say what I wanted to say "WOW....she's a beaut".... I am still waiting...it's shipped supposidly.

Have a friend with a big grizz on his property right now and AGAIN I have NO BOW AND NO ARROWS.

My bow is enroute and Alex shipped my arrows and some other gear awhile back too.

I took my arrows and some other gear with me to deliver he car to Mexico and ALex told me not to take my bow gear across the border (probably a good call).

But now I sit yet again with bears out..season running...ME LEAVING NEXT FRIDAY..and NO FRIGGIN bow.

:(  jer bear....Irish I am happy for you though.
