who makes a 52" recurve
« on: December 13, 2006, 08:19:00 PM »
Just curious to some 52" recurves besides a bear. I have a 52" Kodiak Mag I would like to retire from hunting and get something a little newer for the feild.Not saying she wouldn't ever make it to the feild.   :goldtooth:  thought about making my own but between my family, day job and my bussiness I'm all tied up for a long time.

Look in the sponsor classifieds. One of the Bakers is making that size bow or close to it now.

Black Widow PSR and Lone Wolf Banshee are the class of the field.  I draw 30" every time and like shooting both of those 52's.  LF

I didn't think that BW offered the PSR in anything shorter than 54"? Will they custom make a 52"er?

Chek-Mate makes a 52" 1-piece similar to the Kodiak Mag, called the Raven.  I have one in stock, 52@28, red elm limbs, bubinga/maple riser.  You can see pictures of them on my site,  www.recurves.com  .

Gorr is Cascade..I have 2 Golden Hawk Magnums and neither are speedsters, but for their length are VERY stable.  One of the two (the lighter poundage one) was my main hunting bow this season.

I was going to say Fedora aswell. I have never shot one but I was on there site last night looking at that very 52" bow. It looks very nice and has sparked my interest. I beleive Shrew makes a 52" but I'm not for certain.

I just picked up a used one and it shoots awesome!

Gene's Viper is a great bow, you can contact him at G&L archery page here:   Mantis  

For the money, if you can find a Martin/Nirk Rebel...I think these are very cool little 52" bows, always looking for a good used one myself.

I'd check out Fedora. I have a 54" on order now and I cannot wait to get it.
