i shoot a long bow! its a wild horse creek bow, made in perry, ks about 15 min from my town. it is 54" long reflex-deflex design, 49# and 28" draw, made of bubinga, cocobola, black locust and beaver tail grip. shoots like a dream too. the guy builds excelent bows. at the customer appritiation day in april he told us that he has made just over 300 bows and has only built bows for 117 different people. if you do the math thats alot of repeat customers huh. i would like to purchase another from him but little broke right now. but i love shooting my bow. so quite and fast. wish i had more friends that shot traditional as well but i dont.
