Rivers Edge Arroyo 54"
« on: January 29, 2008, 07:56:00 PM »
Well I have had my 54" Arroyo for about 3 weeks now and thought I'd share pictures and performance specs.
Bow is 54" long, 50#'s @ 27".  Shooting 29" BOP Breasted Cedar shafts with an average weight of 503 Grains, 10 to 1 arrow to weight ratio. I averaged 174 FPS at my draw length (27") With a clean release I was getting around 180 FPS, gotta work on that release more.
Riser is all Bocote save two thin arches of Cocobolo. Limbs are Bamboo with Birds-eye Bocote vaneers.  
Awesome little bow, should do well for a Turkey bow this spring.

I love mine, I get low 190s at 9gpp. with a 28.5" draw. They are quick and very quiet. Great bow that shoots like a 62" bow as far as smoothness and forgiveness. Congrats on a beauty! Shawn

I love them Arroyos. I have a all bocote 54" with boo in the riser that looks VERY similer to yours. They sure smoke an arra too.

Bow is very quiet, even without silencers installed. Can't wait for it to warm up above the zero mark and this persistant cold I've got to go away so I can get outside and shoot it some more.
