Got the bow set up and took it out for a test run. Smooth, quiet and really quick for the weight. I think the static tips make the difference. I think I  will keep her for sometime !!

It would be nice with that riser to get a set of longbow limbs, to match the recurve.

The wait is the hard part...
I am still waiting on a set of Covert Hunter limbs myself.  Starting to get anxious.
