Hi. Just traded for a RER XR recurve. Very nice, smooth and is my first static tip bow. It definitely does seem different than a working limb. Anyone have any experience with these. Does a full length easton axis 400 with 175 up front sound about right?
Thanks in advance, Gary
I had and then sold an XR - wish I wouldn't have done that! The one I had was build by Kevin - nice shooting - quick and quiet.
Need to know your draw weight and length to recommend arrow spine and tip weight.
Ya sorry, forgot the details. 46# @29, I draw 30 "
The 400 spine might work with a lot of tip weight. I would go with 500 spine.
I too had a 56" RER XR 56" and around 47# @ 28" in all Bocote. Sure wish I still had that one.
I'm familiar with this bow. It's well made and very very accurate. Not sure if that's due te static limbs or not but it shoots really well
I have a #47 rer xr. It likes .500 with alum inserts and 100 grains. I draw 30". Wonderful bow
Chuck c is that 47# at your draw length or at 28" ?
I really like the way this thing shoots, could even be as good or better than my Silvertip. It is my first experience with a static tip, but seems very smooth
At 28".
i have one with both recurve and longbow limbs. i also have the Retro. cannot beat them.
Sounds like a good one Gary. Enjoy!
Congratulations on getting a GREAT bow!
