I have a Roseoak Ace on order that will be 63 inches...and my Kodiak Deluxe is 64 inches...I have had and still have several 66 inch vintage bows...a 64 inch Blacktail Snakebit was one of my nicest bows

I set out a while ago to reduce my herd of 40 bows...And I am finally down to 42

I just got Ron's 64" Zipper and it's the best shooting bow I've ever shot, and dead silent. I love it so much I'll be ordering an extra set of limbs for it and selling all my other bows.

I just purchased a 64 inch Wes Wallace recurve. I have always shot 60-62 inch recurves. Wes kept telling me how much I would like the 64 inch length. He was 100% right. It's smooth and very comfortable on the draw.

I have a franken bow recurve that is 64".  Used journey limbs.  I love it.  Very forgiving.

Out here in cali we almost all stick with longer bows. I have stalkers, silvertip, and ILF rigs. I love 64". I started with 60"bows but will not go back.

I remember at one point I had a 64" Brackenberry, it was about 53# @ 30" it was a real nice bow to shoot.

When I use my Bear B handles and #3 limbs, that's a 64" bow. Hunted for many years with a 66" Asbell Bighorn.

I shoot a 64" recurve made by Al Kimery of Tradition-Al bows. I draw 30" and the 64" is much smoother than a 62". I have pulled this bow to 32" with no hint of stack. Al makes a really nice bow for a great price too.

I just received a new 64" Palmer and that thing shoots real well.  Smooth drawing and hits really hard.  Good luck
