I'm looking to get a custom bow for the turkey blind and would like to see what you are shooting. I'm looking for something dark, yet pretty if possible. Thanks!

Hey Skip!!! Nice to see you in here.
 Tracey at St.Joe just made a 54 inch recurve that is blazing fast. I got to try it out and was very impressed. For a short bow pulling 58@28 it was super smooth like a bow 6 inches longer. She could make one in Ebony or walnut

 Here is their Facebook link for pics of the new 54incher.

Maybe you could spray paint the inside of your blind so it wasn't so dark 8^).

I have a Morrison ILF all phonelic that I use and I also have an RER CLXR. Here are some pics of the RER. The recurve limbs are Macasser ebony for my blind. Hard to tell from the photos but they work well.

 

 

These two show the lighter longbow limbs on it.

I don't have any pics. right now, but my 56" Thunderstick T-Mag is what I use out of my blind.  It has osage limbs that I have to cover with limbcovers or paint, but it is a great little blind bow.
God is good, all the time!!!

You have to go to Legends Bows website---He has made a new bow called the Tornado. The black wood is beautiful and great for a blind. I ordered one and when I get it I will be putting my "mountain bow" in the classifieds.  By the way Mike is a sponser here as well. He makes the tornado in a 60" model, but I like the slightly longer version and had him make mine in the 64" length.

I've shot a number of  60-nch longbows, and some a bit longer, out of a Double Bull blind.  More recently, I've gone to a 56-inch Bear takedown. Didi't have to.  Just decided to switch bows.  Bow color doesn't make any difference.
