I received this bow in November and broke my hand and just now got to shoot it. The bow is 61 inches long and pulls 53 lbs at 27 inches. This bow is truly a work of art, but more importantly it is a shooter. I hunt and accuracy is important. I have shot river cane and p.o.c. out of this bow. Hands down the river cane has been more accurate. I love to flint knapp and make arrows. I am not good at making bows and would rather buy one. If you are in the market, I highly suggest looking at Ryan's bows. They are great. Ryan did not ask for this review but I love this bow so much that it deserved some love on this forum. I am a long time creeper and short time poster on this forum, but just wanted to add my 2 cents. No doubt in my mind that I will harvest a whitetail this fall with this bow. I will keep y'all informed. Thanks!!
