If so I'd like to hear your experiences. How is the build quality? I draw a littler over 28.5" and wonder if a 64" would be better for me. Thanks.
I have shot several.I draw to 29" and the 60" model was sweet. Some of the bubinga used can be plain. If you ask for a grainy piece of Bubinga, you will get what you want. I am an eternal Bear fan and very biased towards them.
They are very nice indeed and can pass as a 1965 Kodiak.

They are one of the many classics. I draw 27.5" and shoot 56" bows , the 60" SK is fine for me ,64" is too long a bow for me to hunt with , as i'm a midget....can't go wrong with a SK
They certainly look nice online. Hopefully I can locate one and actually put my hands on one.
I bought one last December during a visit to the factory. In fact, I bought three, two RH for my son and his friend and a LH for myself. All are "Blems" with a "B" embossed in the spec area. We can't find the blems though as they are cosmetic only and must have been a glue-line or something else? The Pro Shop fellow couldn't even find the "Blem".
I put this bow (50#@28") through my chronograph and was surprised it is in the top 5 of all my recurves and most are high reputation customs. My draw is only 26". The make-over bow is nice but I'd still rather have one from 1970 that I couldn't afford when I was 16. Those bows were $100 back then -- 5 times a fortune to me!
I prefer the little bit extra heft of my Take Downs so I'm not hunting with this SK this season.
I bought a new one about 2 months ago and love it, I got the 60" and no problems with my legit 29 3/4" draw. Mine is 45# at 28". Killed a doe couple weeks ago, complete passthrough with woodie and Tigershark. I am very pleased with it.
