let me start by saying i know i've done too many red and black bows but im almost out of paint so i'll change soon. i recently gave a guy at work a 55lb hicory longbow , his nine yr. old is trying to shoot it so i built this bow for her.hickory edge grained 58 in tip to tip 2in at fades tapering to 1/2 nocks . weight around 20 to 25 im guessing her draw length .thanks for looking

That looks great! That's one lucky kid right there. And as far as I'm concerned, I never get tired of seeing red and black bows; that color combo just seems right.
