Shakespeare Necedah Recurve question

[Herder]

Is there anyone who knows when Shakespeare built their first Necedah in 55"?

[Big Bird]

1964 to 1967.and then in 1968 went to 58".

:confused:  hmmm...I have one in 56", all zebrawood...so how do I determine the year?  

[Herder]

A Necedeah in 56" I don`t know, in zebrawood maybe she`s like the Blue Mauritius.

I thought the start with the 55" (good grip) and then they went to the 58", after a while they made the grip more awkward.
64 - 67 I guess that`s what I found on the site last year that this year don`t works.

Lon, I don`t want be impertinent or something like that, but is`t possible that you mean the
Super Necedah (in 54")?

Herder,

I had one 55" but I'm not sure in which year it was made. A friend of mine in Germany has it now.

[Herder]

Jack, I guess I know this fellow.

[Big Bird]

The super necedah were zebra wood 54" and were made from 1968 to 1973.

[Blackhawk]

Geeesh!      

I went to the barn for a look and yep...Super Necedah and it's 54".  

You guys are good. Maybe I'll take up basket weaving or lawn bowling.

The zebrawood Super Necedah has a nice grip, at least it does for me.

I had one of the Shakespeares, actually two.  I really liked them!

I've got a 1966 Necedah and it's 58 inches. I also have a 1966 Shakespeare catalog that shows the Kaibab and Necedah at 58 inches. The 54 inch Super Necedah came out in 1968.
