That’s nice! I have a 55# Coyote with 60” longbow limbs on order since February...still trying to patiently wait! In the meantime I’ve been shooting my 55# Bear Grizzly really well so I’ll most likely be hunting with it come September.

Awesome! FXT model? What woods did you choose?

You are going to love it! I shot mine in a 3D tourney yesterday. A work of art!

For me it will be my 59" Mid 1990's (Asbell) take-down Big Horn Recurve. Bow has a 15" riser, 56# at my draw length, rigged with a Mountain Muffler Fast flight string. Back up bow is an all Zebra Wood 60" Big Horn takedown Recurve of the same 1990's era. This stunning bow is 46# at 27" and also has a 15" riser., limbs have a bamboo core. Difference in fps with 520 gr. arrows is very slight. Primary bow is slightly faster and a little quieter too. LaGriz

I’m using a 45bl Hoyt buffalo this year with black eagle wood grain arrows and a 200 gr cutthroat to top it off. I’m hoping to get my first trad kill this year

My bow stable has been trimmed down to my two favorites....Fox High Sierra, and a Wes Wallace Mentor. Both 60", and around 54# at 28.

Decided to give traditional archery a try for next season and bought a used Bear Grizzly 50@28. Shot it for the first time this morning, I have a lot of work ahead.

Been shooting a little Browning,50#@28", that my Nephew gave me. My favorite is my Marten Mamba, 65#@28", but it's a bit too much for my shoulder these days. I still have the 50# Ben Pearson I killed my first deer with some where back in the sixties.
