Stalker Wolverine FXT help

[Fireman2019]

Ordered a Wolverine FXT a bit ago. I went 62” limbs and that comes with the 18” riser. The sight cutout is 4 1/2”. I wavered between the 60” limbs and 16” riser with a 3 1/2” cut out. I can still change my order for a while. Just looking for any reasons to go with the 60” vs 62”. Any advantages to go with the shorter bow and riser?

A shorter bow with a smaller riser will be easier to tote and manoeuvre. The shorter riser is also used to increase working limbs. I have only longer 64-66 inch bows and someone who owns a short bow will certainly chime in.
You need to be cognisant of the string angle which again depending on bow and limb design may lead to finger pinch.

Really your bowyer is your best guide for this unless you know what you are really after- these guys do know their stuff.

Depends on your draw length and how you shoot your bow.  If you have a 28-inch or shorter draw, might want to go with the 60-inch bow.  If your draw length is longer than 28 inches, a 62-inch bow will be more comfortable.  If you shoot your bow vertically, might want to go to the 62-inch bow for the longer sight window.  A 3 1/2 sight window may blot out part of your target, depending on where you anchor.

Otherwise, there really won't be much difference between the bows in draw smoothness or performance. I doubt you would notice a maneuverability difference, but there would be a weight difference due to the different riser lengths.  Some like the additional stability a heavier riser provides.  Others don't like the additional weight.  I agree with Ace.  God idea to talk it over with South.

I spoke with him yesterday. I think I figured out what he was telling me. The 62 inch bow uses the same limbs as the 60, the riser on on the 60” is just 2 inches shorter. So I called a bit ago and switched to the 60” bow with the 16.5 riser.
