Most responses seem to agree with the local bow shop. Short bows are not good for longer draws. From my experience the grizzly should be for 28 and shorter draws, but I have become accustomed to it stacking. What bow recommendations do people have for 28-29 inch draws that are under 500 bucks ? I have stayed away from vintage bows because of their age and fear of breaking one with big dollars invested.

I had a '68 Grizzly, 56 inches, that I drew to 28.5 and loved shooting. Should have never sold that bow, but I wanted to make room for a '66 K Mag, which I also enjoy shooting. The stable here also includes a '60 De Luxe, a '58 Kodiak and a '70 Super Kodiak. After I make a careful purchase of these old bows, the last thing on my mind when shooting them is whether they're about to blow up on me. The first thing on my mind is how much better they all could shoot than I do.      

I've toyed with the Super Mag idea, but with a K Mag already here in a collection of eight bows and the reputed risk of stacking beyond 28", it makes little sense for me. I would not buy one without shooting it. YMMV.

I just bought a Gainesville model and love it. It hits where I'm looking and I feel no pinch at all. I totally impressed with this little bow. I have over 10 bows but this one may become my go to. Time will tell. So far so good.
