I haven't got around to taking pictures of the new set of twins together, but I do have a couple of my righthander I picked up at Kalamazoo.  Bocote riser and Myrtle limbs.

For the record...this bow is the BEST bow I have ever owned and there is nothing I could think of to improve on it.  It is 52# @ 29 1/2" and everytime I shoot it, I look at that and shake my head.  It is a high performance bow for sure!

Felix,

All the bows we've gotten from Brian have been 60s.  I'm just a middle of the road kinda' guy   ;)

Same we'll be mine,also if i think the 58' can still fit most guys but I like the proportions on the 60".

The 58" bow I shot at Kzoo was awesome.  It really suprised me how smooth is was being a 58" 3 piece bow.  I had a hard time choosing a 58 or 60 inch.

I love 58"bows also if I draw 29",my present choice is been based on the look and the proportions since I never put my eyes on a real one.

Felix, I would guess with your 29" draw a 60" would be the better choice.  I only draw 28" and really liked the 58 and 60 inch bows I shot.

Steve - Is he really making a 56"...Does that mean he's building a shorter riser?

I am almost certain he was doing a new limb. He's out of touch till next week; I'll double check then.

Steve,

I know in my recent discussions with Brian that he was going to be offering additional options, but I just can't recall exactly what he told me.  Once he gets back from the Pig Gig, I am sure he will chime in here.

Thanks for all the nice compliments everyone.  I am really looking forward to this bow!

Barry,

The one option that I am sure of is he has grip checkering now. I'm thinking my one piece will have a checkered grip. I have heard there have been a couple of porkers put out of their misery so far this week and I think there is a TT in the mix on that.  I know he has been working on a new shorter limb, just can't remember if it is ready.

Enjoy that new bow!

Mac,

Not much to tell yet.  They are in the works along with a 1 pc longbow and a 3 pc longbow.  All I know is I'm getting the first one piece recurve...  :D

Dean,

Brian sent me the photo before leaving to go on the Pig Gig, I should have it in a few days.

Give Brian a call, I think the wait time will be 2-3 months, but he can advise for sure.
