Anyone own a Bruin One piece in the 60 or 62 inch length? How big are the risers it is hard to tell from the website. I would also like to hear your thoughts on Mike's one pieces never have held or seen one in person. I have heard nothing but good things about him and his bows and know he has been building bows a long time. If you have pictures of either 1 or 2 pieces please post them. Thanks

One of the best bows of all times,I have a one piece ,60 inches long it does everything a bows suppose to do.I've studied Mikes bows for years and have built a few as per the way he does .They shoot unreal.grab one if you can you won't be disapointed.

No one ever quite believes this, but Mike's bows shooting his endless loop B50 strings are as fast as anything out there. Extremely sweet shooters too, not just a speedbow. Mike's a funny guy; He doesn't even go to the trouble to advertise his top gun, which he calls his "Master Elite Express". This is the fastest recurve I've ever shot, but he only offers this in a 3 piece.

The best buys are the Woodsmasters. They shoot just as good as the fancy models at a fraction of the price.

I owned a one piece bow from Bruin and it was as nice as anything I've ever had including my beloved old Rocky Mountain Recurve and my BWMAII. It shot flat and hard, was smooth and quiet, and was completely stable in my hands.
I like the larger riser--and Mike Steliga knows how to make a good bow. Unfortunately. my Bruin was stolen in a burglary and I am without it these days. I do miss it.

I owned two of Mike's bows. A Huntmaster takedown that is the first custom recurve I ever purchased. Won't ever get rid of that bow. Killed 4 bull elk before I moved on to Longbows...I nicknamed it Big Boy because of its 65lbs draw weight. I owned a one piece Huntmaster that I sold to a lifelong friend. Killed a bull with that bow. I miss it sometimes, it was so smooth to shoot and was beautiful to look at. If I had to do it over again, I would have kept it for my boys...Bruin Bows are underrated and somewhat under appreciated for the excellent bows they are.

Mike makes some of the smoothest pulling short bows I've shot. I was playing around with one of his 54"ers awhile back. Incredibly smooth. Should have bought it.
