« on: February 23, 2008, 07:07:00 PM »
Other than Chek Mate (I have an H56) who makes a 56" recurve, either TD or one piece?...

Jack Kempf makes take downs in that length-
Kwik Styk, Trophy Hunter and a couple of other models. I can get you his phone # if you are interested. No web page but he will send you a catalogue. Just going out after work to shoot a new one from him for a few minutes. Great value and workmanship.

BW makes them in either takedown or one-piece.  According to their specs, they are rated for 23-27" draw length.

Bob Lee is now offering his take-down recurve in 54 and 56" lengths.  The riser is 4" shorter than his standard riser.  It comes in either Hunter or Signature models.

I love my 56" Black Widow SA III. It can be drawn to 29"s with ease. I've also shot a 56" Morrison takedown recurve and it was really sweet. I use to own a Chek-Mate FireBird 56" takedown recurve and it was SUPER smooth to 30"s.
Don't let the 56" bows fool you. If they're built properly they are a real pleasure to shoot even at longer draws. AND, I've yet to feel any finger pinch from the bows listed or the SEVERAL other 56"ers I've owned/shot. I'm sure guys with really large hands might suffer this but I wear a size medium glove so, maybe that helps.

RER makes one in a T/D and a  54"er in a one-piece. Great bows and they are quiet due to the design and they smoke! Shawn

If the Whisperstik 56" shoots as good as the 58" does, it'll be a real winner.

Thanks guys, I had no idea there were that many 56"ers available.

Much as I love my H56 I could really use a bit bigger sight window...

Gerry Fiegel of Northwind Archery also makes an awsome 56 incher with any kind of grip you like including straight like a longbow style.
