3-piece McCullough 59er
« on: January 08, 2009, 10:32:00 AM »
Yea, I wish!

I have a one-piece John McCullough 59er recuve that is one of the best shooting bows I have ever laid my hands on. I've owned it for about 7 years and always find myself coming back to it no matter how many other bows hang from my pegs.

That said, I travel a lot these days and have worked out a convenient system for putting two 3-piece take downs in the bottom of a large roller duffle bag.

So, here's my question. Who makes a 3-piece TD that is most similar in geometry, grip shape, and shooting manners to John's 59er?

I could be wrong, but I think I read someplace that Pedator bows were inspired by Bear bows. In fact I think they made limbs for the take downs for a bit. Maybe check out their site to see if its a way for you to go.

Rer.  Kohannah just came out with a deflexed riser 3 peice longbow and he may be making recurve limbs for it real soon.  The longbow is sweet.
It's not the arrival, it's the journey.

You can always get the 59er in a 2 piece.
