Many thanks again guys, I am glad you like the bow    :)

…Is that a 28" draw? If I anchored there it would be like 31-32" …
Well, I just have checked it - it is a 28 3/4'' draw, measured from the back of the bow. It seems that I have short arms, hmm ?  :D

That is a fine looking bow.  I love those tips very much so.  Good looking profiles on it also.
Happy hunting to all!

I like the 3 in one photo, and those tips are blended in sweet as can be.
Handsome bow, nice looking long draw too.
