Title: XS Recurve
Post by: michbowhunter on May 01, 2011, 09:30:00 PM
Just finished this one for TG member Chris Mcfadden...56" 59# @ 28"  Charcoalsky with  burnt orange diamondwood accent, wedge, and tip overlay.  This combo was Chris's idea...I think it turned out great!  Of course I had to shoot it a bit tonight...I call it testing  :rolleyes:

Hope to have this one in hand by weeks end.I bought one of Jared's 52" XS Prototypes for turkey hunting from a blind and liked it so much my son ordered one and of course I had to have another with a little longer limb,nothing wrong with the 52",just more variety.My 52" is the exact opposite color combo except for clear glass on the limbs.It's 57#@28 and launches 700grn. arrows with no problem.Jared does great work and is super to deal with.If your in the market give him some thought, you won't be diappointed.Thanks again Jared for a great job!

Yep, a lot of guys liked the 52" but wanted the limbs a bit longer to handle a longer draw.  Lots of requests for the 56" and not too many for the 54's, and 58's???

Chris,  thanks for the kind words.  I hope you and your son enjoy the bows for years to come.
Now go and shoot that turkey!!  I'll be out with my 56" Thurs, Fri, and Sat trying to get my first one with a bow!

Just added the pic to my Favorite bows file. There's only one other bow in there.

Just can't get over that orange dymondwood. Stunning with the black.
