You could probably get away with 62" ntn with a non-bending handle and a 27" draw. But that's as short as I would go. Heat treat the belly and you'll pick up a few more pounds.

Missouri, where all the best wood is! Well maybe not the straightest!

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!
