Deer season was drawing to a close for me and looking back on my experiences with these trad bows made me think I wanted a short bow.

I based my choice off the 52in by Bear but wanted something different.

I got a hankering and acted! After some consulting with some folks I made the call.

Here she is fresh from Fedex today.

I told him I wanted it camo I think the grain off the wood did just that. He also scaled the grip down and so far after today's shooting I wish it was September!

Those arrows aren't tuned, 600gr 55/75s were flying wild. I think some 2016s are in order.

Is that cocobola wood? I think that's how it's pronounced.
Looks awesome no doubt.

I just sold my Kestrel 2 days ago. It was 50# at 28. It was a real shooter. It was just to short for my 30" draw. I mainly bought it for ground blind hunting.

That's Pretty right there.

I have a Longbow being made right now with myrtle and curly maple. After seeing yours, I can't wait to get mine.
