Is there any short bow out there that doesn't stack at my 30" draw?

[owlbait]

So, short risered bows with longer working limbs, static tip limb bows, horse bows would be a great grouping of bows to investigate.  I loved my Saluki, short and fast, but stringing it was at times scary. I had a 54" Windstorm that fit the short riser-longer working limb category that shot great and had no noticeable stack or finger pinch. Chuck Deshler's 50" Ambush has had great reviews from 30+ draw lengths as has the Hoots/Aneewakee bows. Good luck.

What's wrong with the old faithful Kodiak Mag if finger pinch isn't an issue? I see guys here and on other sites that shoot the mag at 30 inches.  Never been a smoother drawing bow than the bear recurves in MHO.

If a custom job is your hankering give Mike Mecredy of Maddog a holler.  I have a 60 and 65 longbow that I don't draw nearly that far, but I have several friends that own 58 and 60 inch ones that draw 30 and they love theirs.

Saluki, Big Jim Thunderchild, Hoots, Schrew, Bamabows Expedition, and without a doubt....... Jack Kempf Kwyk!

Shot a Hoots last year at K-Zoo, and was very impresses by the bow. Very comfortable to shoot. I draw 29.5 inches. This year I have been hunting with a Grayling era Kodiak Magnum. It kind of bottoms out just a bit past my draw length, but I have grown use to the feel of it and have grown to like it a lot. It almost functions somewhat like a cllicker I think. I know when I feel that little bit extra tension, that I am truly at full draw.

I have a '64 Kodiak Magnum (52"). It is only 40 @ 28, so the following statement has nothing to do with a draw weight limitation on my part....

The limbs feel like they bottom-out at around 30". They don't feel like they can go much further without a risk of delamination. Like Chuck said, kind of like a draw stop of sorts.

Hey 2Fletch how does that Black Creek Banshee you beat me to at the Hill shoot last year draw to 30"? I know it did just fine @ 29"

[Ground Hunter]

No

Yep, Shrew. I think Bob drew his to 31"

I have a 29 1/2" draw and love my 52" Cascade Nigh Hawk and 56" Cascade Brush Hawk.

I can build you a 56 inch Static tip Eaglewing top mount that will not stack at 30 inches./

I have a 56" shrew classic hunter that is my pride and joy....No finger pinch, or stack at my 29 1/2" draw. After hunting with it the past couple years, cant imagine hunting with anything longer now.

[legends1]

My "Tornado"will fit you.I also have a long draw (31") i built it to be stack free for me.

I have seen my Two Tracks Ambush 50" recurve drawn to 30 1/2" repeatedly (not by me, I draw 28" on the money) and it keeps on performing and performing.  An no, the string wont pull off like one guy asked.

[Over&Under]

Shrew, Lost Creek, Black Mt and RER come to mind.

I have a few short bows that stack. I draw around 30".  
The bow pulls back to a point that it just wants to stop. I look at it as ok if the bow still shoots even at this extreme point in the draw.  52 ", 58" and some 60" bows all stack for me. I own some really light weight bows and you can still have the issue.

[joe skipp]

Both the Kempf Raven and Kwyk Styk at 56" with Static limb tips will pull smooth to 30".

[Dave Worden]

I've been pulling a 54" Shakespeare Super Necedah to 30 1/2" for forty years.  No stack, no negative results of any kind, if you ignore my accuracy!

Last year at Kazoo my friend was drawing a 54" Hoots recurve to 31" without any stacking or pinch. Very impresive bows with great looks and cast. On my list to own.
