RE: Crusader 62" Will it take a 29" draw?

"It is worth the trade no matter what. "

It's pretty close. The trade if for a Fedora 560 TD Recurve. I don't shoot it anymore because my 1st bow is a CM Hunter II.

RE: self nocks, reinforced nocks?

Lilhunter,

Lots of ivory you say. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Maybe I could get you to sell me a little bit sometime. I think a all ivory nock would look great.
