The recurves are 60" various poundages
The black longbow is from a Kenny M form with a double taper, 62" 55# @28" and the other longbow is 64" 50# @ 28"
Thanks for looking.
Mark

Excellent work!
Plant a fruit or nut tree today, and have good hunting tomorrow.

Great looking bows!  What kind of wood is under the clear glass on the one that is second from the bottom?  Almost looks like ERC?  Whatever it is, I really like it.
It's hard to make a wooden bow which isn't beautiful, even if it's ugly.

The top two are two piece takedowns.
