Default CM 56" T/D Hunter?

I am looking for any feedback on this recurve.

Does it draw smoothly out to 28" Any stacking? Is it stable? How's the performance?

Also, which riser design does it follow, the Hunter or Hunter II. I realize it's shorter but does it have more deflex in it like the Hunter II?

Default RE: CM 56" T/D Hunter?

Hi 4feathers I have a 56" T/D . It is a very nice bow smooth as butter out to 28 which is my draw and is quick and stable.I also have the 56" firebird a 58" hunter II a falcon and a falcon special.When I head out to shoot I always find myself grabbing the 56" hunter. It is not as deflexed as a hunter II and I have never seen a hunter I riser in person so can't say about that. Try before you buy is the best policy but if that isn't possible i would give that bow a BIG thumbs up. Good Luck

Troy, thanks for your input. Do you have any pics of yours? I wish I could try before I buy but that's not possible. I didn't know they made the Hunter II in a 58".

Just out of curiosity, why don't Chek-Mate make a 56" Hunter II?
Thanks,

The 52" and 56" Hunter style take-downs were designed specifically for Cascade by another bowyer. US dealers cannot get them, although for some reason the Canadian dealers can. Marc prefers the 58", and hasn't bothered designing a 52" or 56" model. He is working on a one-piece Hunter II that will be offered in shorter lengths though.
