Default Longbow for a 12 year old

My 12 year old son is really interested in Archery and he absolutely loves long bows. Can anyone recommend a long bow that would suit this young man ? He is 5' 2" and about 100 lbs. Thanks

this is what my son is currently shooting at age 10. A friend of mine seen it and ordered one for his 12 year old nephew. Worth the $$$ IMO.

I leave saturday for a 9 day grizzly hunt (stickbow style of course ). The bow is yours if you want it. I was saving it for some deserving young fella and put out some feelers weeks ago locally, no parent or kid has stepped up for it so it's still here. I'll have to put together some arras for it if you want it though which means I wont be able to get anything out to you till I get back which will be the first of june. That should give me a few days to unpack and go over gear before putting things away. (and hopefully visit my local taxidermists place, maybe.......I hope.............) The bow does have a new string on it also. I replaced it as the old one was pretty shot.
