Yep, 62" Welsey special.  I like it quite a bit, but if I had to do it all over again, I'd go with a 64".

62" for a 25" draw should work fine, especially if it is a string follow. I had a 64" for my 26" plus that was about 54 pounds.  If it were a heavier bow and reflexed I prefer 66" for up to 65 and 68" for heavier bows. However, my favorite hunting bow is 68"at 57.5 Pounds and is whipped a bit more than standard Hills.

I just got a HH 64" 100# at 28". I have only had time to shoot a dozen arrows. But, I sure do love it.
