Sixby that's an intriguing bow! Those limbs have some serious hook to them. Almost what I would call a multi-cam. That sure is a beautiful riser too! I'd love to shoot it.

Really pretty bow Sixby, I've been considering trying a recurve again for the added weight to see if it helps my shooting.

Thanks guys. I just started making this model late last year. The people that have bought them say that they are the best shooting recurve that they have ever shot. I am partial myself. It is a bow design that allows a foreward riser and still maintains a low brace and lots of speed. It is a true static and maintains perfect string angle due to the roll over of the hook , (cam) Very short working limb with fast return. this is the quietest recurve I have ever shot and customers say the same. I will be hunting with no silencers on the string. The 56 in onepiece has been pulled and shot at 32 inches and I reccomend it to 29.
I have had one major thing to overcome. I do build what is called a pretty bow. Somehow , every customer that I have had said that they never expected it to actually shoot better than they looked. But they really do. That is because God has been my instructor and inspiration, I have built them to be shooters first and then added the other. God Bless, Steve

what is the mass weight of that bow?

Sixby

Sal, I can't honestly answer that, I never weighed it. It lives in Spring Texas though. If you get down that way look up Steve Morris. He is a great friend and the owner of it. God Bless,
I have built several of these bows with Maccassar and they all are what I would call heavy , even with the slim lines. Withoug exception the owners have commented about them being extremely accurate. God bless, Steve

I've got a PSAX with an Ironwood riser that really lets you know your holding it.
I usually grab one of my Big Jims for a walk in the hills.... They weight about what the Widow limbs weigh    :)    
As far as accurate, weight is not as big an issue as grip and bow length for me. I shoot my longer bows a tad better than my short bows? I think it has something to do with big fingers and my release...

My new Bob Lee's have half micarta risers for that very reason. Mass weight!

My new BW PSAV weighs in at a tad over 3# without quiver or arrows.
