Bought a Thunderbird from Dave about 13 years ago for my son. It is about 58" and pulls about 25# @ 23" and is called "Pooh Bear" ,which Dave named it and painted on the limb. It is one of the nicest bows I have seen and the riser is Osage. Called him up a couple of years ago to get another one, son has grown a little over 13 years, and he dosn't make them anymore. Based on the quality of the bow I have I wouldn't hesitate. Alot of kids have shot Pooh Bear and still do. If I ever run across one pulling 47 - 48# I am buying it. Right hand though.
