I just recieved my RER Arroya recurve today. I onlt had achance to shoot 4 arrow thru it, but it smokes and arrow and was amazingly quiet with nothing on the string. It is 54"s and 52#s at 28"s. I can post pics. tomorrow, but if Frank sees this he may post a couple for me. I will keep this thread up for afew days and let ya know what I think. I know it has the prettiest limb veneers I have evr seen, and I have to find out what they are. This was an in stock bow and the service was great. Should be a great turkey bow! Shawn

I just shot some more in the house. I know I cannot tell on arrow flight as I cannot see it. I am sure this is one of fastest bows I ever shot. I am shooting just shy of 10gpp. I am gonna bareshaft it tomorrow and se what it likes. I will keep ya updated, my shoulder hurts bad, so I cannot shoot too many arrows at a rip. Shawn

Shawn If the pics Frank posted are the bow you have it has a Jatoba riser and quilted Sapelle(sp?)veneers. Looks just like the I got to shoot the day it came out of the form.

Shawn Just so ya know Austin (Kevin & Sue's son) drew that bow 31" and smoked arrows. That is the First 54" Arroyro made. Great looking bow shawn enjoy.<><

Shawn Leonard · « **Reply #9 on:** February 28, 2007, 10:24:00 PM »

It is the first bow off the form, Kevin said it seems to be the fastest bow from that form and has not changed anything except made the grip a tad slimmer. I like it so far but have only put 20 arrows thru it. I will shot it a bit more tomorrow. Shawn

Golden Hawk · « **Reply #10 on:** February 28, 2007, 10:36:00 PM »

That little sucker is fast Shawn. I shot it with a 550 grain arrow and my 28" draw at around 180-185 fps.

Shawn Leonard · « **Reply #11 on:** February 28, 2007, 11:02:00 PM »

I imagine at 9gpp. and a 28" draw it will do into the 190s. I may chrono it this weekend. I am not a speed freak, but if the bow is quiet, stable and shoots where I look than speed does not hurt. Shawn

Sure is a purty bow.

Hey Pappy, What'cha talkin' 'bout us there for???

We're just-a cloggin' along up here in the snow, don't 'chya know....

:D

We do have a bit of an accent of our own now, don't we?!

Mark Fedrizzi · « **Reply #16 on:** March 01, 2007, 05:28:00 PM »

Shawn-- I have a 3pc--58" 50# at my draw---and it is one of the nicest I have placed my hands on---I put beaver silencers on it--real Quite---stable in the hand, and shoots very well---

This one may STAY with you a little while---

...I am curious as to the chrono numbers--as I am shooting around 9.5 GPP--not a speed freak either BUT this bow sure has some cast--and it helps..

I cannot say enough about the service I got from Kevin and Sue (even sent a X-mas card)..

..We will be hearing a lot more about RER bows in the near future...

Mark Kevin and Sue are great people thats for sure. Customers are #1 with them. Kevin works a full time job as does Sue and builds bows when he gets home. He always makes time to talk to customers.The man loves building bows. It's a Family business and I can tell ya they all take great pride in what they do. Pappy I know there looking forward to the Tenn classic. ><>

Shawn Leonard · « **Reply #18 on:** March 01, 2007, 08:20:00 PM »

Well, I shot the snot out of it today. I am sure it did not do my shoulder any good either. I will say I was frustrated, I could not get anything I had to bareshaft, and I was playing with carbons and point weight a lot. I finally ended up with a carbonwood 3000 cut to 29.5"s and just shy of 200 grains up front. They fly like bullets and are 9gpp. I think I am gonna like this bow. I just have to quiet it down some, I mean it is quiet but I think I can make it quieter! Shawn

sticshooter · « **Reply #19 on:** March 01, 2007, 08:35:00 PM »

SOOOOO did we chrono it? Post a pic of it braced. It's looks great.<><
