I’ve always loved the looks of those bows. What’s your draw length? I doubt a 54” bow would handle my monkey arms - I think I draw between 30.5-31”
 
26. Yeah, probably a 56. Jim always available to ask. Very user friendly.

I used to think that about shorter bows too. I draw just of 31" and love shooting my 50" browning cobra. I dont find that it stacks at all. I also have a pearson Mach I which is 52" I really like too but needs refinishing. I did have a Bear K-mag that stacked like crazy and I got rid of...

Come on trad team, lets get some points on the board! Headed out for an hour or so tonight after work... Get out at 4:30. 20 minute drive. 10 minute walk in on the farm--probably setup over a tried and true apple tree/powerline/path intersection, 15 minute setup ish(havent hunted here yet this year). Sunset is just after 6:00.... hope to hang for like 45minutes. Better than nothign!
 
I will shoot another doe given a chance. They gave us 3 doe tags this year plus the buck tag.

Nice. we get(to buy) 2 doe and a buck. IF I see 3 dear in all seasons total I'll be lucky, let alone get a shot at 3! HA!

Somehow I missed this thread. I shoot a 54" Fox Breed Recurve 55# @ 26". I'm still new to saddle hunting and have only practiced in the yard. Here is the deer I took this year with my recurve. I was sitting in a Hammock Seat on the ground wearing my ghillie suit. Shot him at 14 yards.View attachment 7158

My flatbow is 63" my asl 64". Much easier to shoot them both out of a saddle than my treestand...dont have to worry about bottom limb whacking the platform.
