For hunting. Is there one that is a stable shooter at shorter lengths. Ive heard good things on the cascade bows Nighthawk and Golden hawk in the magnum. Would prefer a 48 for manuverability but concerned in the give up of shootability. My draw is 27 3/4.

I don't know Cascade bows but for the money the old Bear Kodiak Magnum is one heck of a bow:smooth,quiet and enough fast up to 20 yrs.Another my favorite is Rocky Mountain 50".It is so bad that they are no more made

Take a look at the TwoTracks ambush...... it is a 50" recurve that draws very smooth...... chuck makes a great bow...

K-Mag shoots right with them all.

The Kodiak Magnum is a great bow for your draw length; I know because that is my draw length. Another good choice in the vintage line is the Browning Nomad Stalker 52", and the Pearson BPH-52.

The Cascade bows by Steve Gorr are hard to beat for short takedowns.

The Kodiak Mag. comes to mind first, they are fairly easy to find. I used to shoot a Texas Recurve Commanche 52", way-to-heavy-for-me-now @ 28" static tipped recurve. I shot it pretty well but they are hard to come by.

Jeffery Mighty Mag was the best 52" bow I have ever owned.

I'll second the Rodney Wright Stalker. Only 46" and shoots with the big boys. If you can't shoot it, you can't shoot.

I had a ben persons 50# 52" bow that shot great! I am shooting a 58" now but really want to get another 52" bow soon they are very nice.

Jack Kempf is offering his Kwyk Styk's in 52" now. Have not shot one but Jack has knowing but good things to say about it.

K-Mag is also a good shooter.

Bear Supermag 48" @ 50# A little pinch right at 28", but awesome out of a blind, in the stand, or stalking!

ckanous · « **Reply #17 on:** February 24, 2010, 07:19:00 PM »

I beleive Lee Hoots is making a 52" H00TS recurve also now. sweet little bows but I opted for the 54".

Bmac · « **Reply #18 on:** February 24, 2010, 08:07:00 PM »

I like the old Bear Super Mags.

heydeerman · « **Reply #19 on:** February 24, 2010, 08:09:00 PM »

I owned a Checkmate for a short time. Can't remember the model but it was a shooter and I shot it pretty good.
