i use flemish b-50 on mine. it's 45x lbs and shoots very well.

i got mine from the late rube powell in 1980 or so and have had it since...
i was told by a sales person, when purchasing an out-of-date newpaper that it was out-of-date...

i told her "i've been told i'm out-of-date, too"...

does that mean i'm up-to-date?

I wasn't asking if anyone thought I should put an elevated rest on T.O. I was asking if there was enough sight window to do so.  But to answer your question, superior arrow flight and being able to use either vanes or feathers as the conditions dictate.

So the question remains, is there enough window to do so? Looks to me from the pictures like there is, so yesterday I ordered a new K-Mag LH 55#@28"...

Yes, there is enough room for a elevated rest, I had on on mine for years, and it worked just fine. I'm shooting off the shelf again now. Just cuz?!

NDTerminator,
Didn't you say on an earlier post that you had a 30" draw? I shot a K-Mag as a kid but the last time I tried drawing one back...no way. Way to much pinch.

Does anyone shoot these neat-looking little bows with a longer draw length, say 30"? If so, how are they?

Does anyone have any experience with how one of the new K Mags with a FF string shoots vs. one of the older ones of the same draw wt. and a dacron string?
I've got one of the green '72s at 51#, which I like a lot,  and I'm wondering if I could get a bit more performance from a new 50#.  I've got an old drawing shoulder injury and can really tell the difference--it hurts--if I shoot 55# for a reasonable target session.  I know I can't get something for nothing, but I thought I'd ask.
None
