Quote from: Terry Green on November 21, 2025, 11:01:10 AMOnski, it sounds like you haven't tried many bows at sixty inches. You're missing the whole design revelation. The late Ron KaClaur would debunk you in two seconds. I also debunk you. You have either shot and poorly designed bows at sixty inches, or you haven't tried enough bows, while the other.

I'm glad you admit you have found one.But there are many others that would fit.You also. Old wives' tales are just that, wives tales, don't believe all of them.

I admittedly do not keep up with bow designs.  I'd like to hear more on the design revelation and some idea of what to look for.  I'd love to shoot shorter bows than I'm currently shooting but I've always been told it was a bad idea and I've just stick with it.

Don't let other people's opinions keep you from discovering the amazing innovations in bow design. If you're at all interested in shooting shorter bows, do yourself a favor and research bows like the Javaman Elkheart, Big Jim's Thunderchild, Toelke Pika, Shrew Classic Hunter, and the Centaur Longbow. All of these bows come in various lengths to accommodate longer than average draw lengths, while still qualifying as short bows. They are unequaled in hunting situations, and don't let anyone tell you that they aren't as accurate as longer bows ... it's simply not true.
