Got my new used 62" RER Arroyo 43#@28" today from Kevin. Tiger Ebony riser and limbs. This bow shoots incredible. Super smooth, great grip, very fast and quiet. The TerMaats are a joy to buy from. If there is a better recurve out there i haven't found it. Got to go shoot it some more.

RER's are great shooters for sure. Kevin is a great guy to deal with also.

Best of luck with it. Now post some pics!!!

It was a trade in bow. Kevin reworked the grip and refinished the whole bow. Looks like new. Don't know how to post pics, Sorry

I also just picked up an RER Arroyo today, from member "Long Bow". This one is also Tiger Ebony, 58" 51@28. As I only got it today, I don't know if I can call it my grail bow...YET...but what a great bow that fits me like a glove and SMOKES an arrow!

I've never shot their recurves, but I do own 2 of their LX longbows, which is the 3 piece takedown model. Yes, super people and great bows! You made a very good choice.
