Title: Journeyman XS Recurve???
Post by: Caleb the bow breaker on October 28, 2011, 11:27:00 PM
All,

Does anybody have any experience with Journeyman recurves???.  Was looking at their site and they are pretty good looking bows but would like to know how they act?

I have one of Jared's XS recurves. It is 52"and 45#@28". I draw it to 29",and it spits out a 450gr arrow (9.2gr per#)at 179ft per s, and 500gr (10.2gr) at 173ft per s. It's got a great grip.I don't shoot it as much as I should, as I prefer my longer (62') bows,but I think that it like's me, as every time I shoot it, I am surprised how accurate I am with it. If Jared ever makes a 62" one, I'll be making an order. Good bow, and great value for your bucks.

Daniel, thanks for the kind words.  This winter I will be working on a 60-62" recurve form for the XS riser.  I'll keep ya updated...Jared
