Mine is 62 inches and a TD.Its my second one.I draw about 30".The limbs are all real bamboo,not action boo!You can see where the nodes have been ground down.No veneers,clear glass.

Its an awesome shooter and as good as it gets in a 50s style recurve in my personell experience.I think I have owned around fifty 50s style recurves.Narrow deep cored limbs that taper nicely.Its an elegant bow

The riser is nice with super long fadeouts that eventully disappear.Mine is Indonesian rosewood

It is really surprisingly fast,very quiet and dead in the hand.Very stable bow as well.

I like the T.D alot!It adds some mass weight and he does an excellant job with the fit.The grip is contoured nicely as well into a positive locator style.

I am actually thinking about another someday in a 2 Piece with an all phenolic riser in a lighter poundage for 3-D.

I cant think of one thing to complain about or pick at with the 62 inch Fox Breed.

Maybe I could send you some pics if you give me your E-mail address Bill.

I have one I picked up locally that was used and came at a great price. 62-inches and 56 lbs @ 28 (I draw 29).

When tuned, it is very quiet (I replaced the used string with a skinny string and now it is kind of loud, so I need to tune, but I know it can be quiet once tuned). Extremely smooth draw. Very fast.

Other than my Quinn Stallion, I don't own another bow that will accurately shoot anything I feed it. I have shot various length .400 spine carbons, unknown wood spine (came with bow, so I believe they were tuned for it), and even some .340 carbon Heavy Hunters out of it -- they all performed the same and had great performance. I was pleasantly surprised. Basically, it's a well-mannered bow.

The grip fills your hand, it isn't a skinny grip. It's also, at least in my opinion, a medium-grip angle. If neither of those are your preference, just be aware (I've slowly come to realize I prefer and am more accurate with a high-grip bow, so I'll most likely be selling this one after the holidays).

Overall craftsmanship and performance are great. Can't think of a bad thing to say about it.
