Man that is a fine stick.  I have really been looking into getting a short longbow.  I like you have a short draw mine being 26 inches.

I thought you were in a birdcage   :biglaugh:

I like short bows too.  I pull 30 inches and settle at 29.5".  My 54in Wild Horse Creek Mariah is super smooth past my draw.  Your new bow is a looker.  Me like.  Cant wait for you to post a pic of a beautiful buck on your garage floor or in the back of your truck.  Or maybe on a 4wheeler:)  Already gutted too!

I'm not sure you're sorry for teasing us!

What a beauty, nice work. I have a 1970 56" Grizzly that I really like. A modern 56"er would be a nice addition. Get 'er perfected, Chad.

I've always loved the look of short bows but with a 30" draw they never worked that well for me. Now with advancing age and accumulated injury my draw is getting down into the normal range.

I need to check one of those out. I find 58" works real well now that I'm down to a 28" draw.
