From Stick-N-Strings: "I love this short draw shooting! Didn't think I would at first but I liked the looks of these little bows so much I had to give it a whirl. 47.5" tip to tip 46" ntn. Mocassin backed Yew. 51# at 23". I built me a few stone head arrows and a few trade points to hunt with and I'm hoping she'll make some meat this fall."
Muy bonito arco!! Here are some comments from forum members!
