Looking at getting a short bow for the ground blind/treestands. Somewhere in the 54-56" range. What are some models u guys recommend.

Thanks Roy

Greg Coffey, Java Man bows Jason Kendall, Kanati bows, Ron LaClair's Shrew bows.  All are great shooting bows.
Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.

Definitely check out Ron LaClair Shrew's and Gregg Coffee Javaman bow's!
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people's sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

One thing to consider is that a 58 inch static tip will effectively be about the same length as a shorter d/r bow.

I just pick up a Pika from Dan Toelke 56"I draw 29" it is very smooth. You wouldn't go wrong with any of the mentioned above.
Take the long way around.

Another good one which is very reasonably priced is Rich Emery's Stikbow.  I have one that is 54".
