Don't expect to see beautiful risers, fancy veneers...I got just what I ordered. A No Nonsense one piece recurve that performs well.

Ordered the left Hand Fedora H560 back in late August after shooting Southpawshooters 54# Fedora. I could handle 52# comfortably Lefty so since Scott would not sell me his....had to order my own.

Told Mike I wanted a Charcoal riser with gray Superaction wood limbs. Jason called back and said "Dad's giving you Bamboo limbs, we'll stain them." Cool....

Nothing fancy here...love the grip and always love the thumb rests. This bow sends my 535 grain 2117's down range with authority. Same with 600 grain AD Trad Lites. I'm staying with Dacron strings because the bow is fast enough. Calling this bow "Lefty"...works with "JK" my Kempf longbow....

Hope I resized the pics ok...tough time with new camera and HP Scanner/Printer....

Limb tips built up for FF...sticking with Dacron



Added weight and mass eliminates torque....



The Fedora thumb rest and grip...real sweet



Bamboo limbs lightly stained, I wanted a little camo effect

I like it. Seems like the grip is all wrong though. I am right handed.
I do like the shape of the grip real well, It looks a lot like how I shape mine. I have never seen the Fedora grip before. Very Nice.

God bless you , Steve

I like how the contact area of the shelf is directly above the deepest part of the grip. Good looking bow.
