Hello Bobby - it looks to be 56" according this page: http://www.3riversarchery.com/bear+60%26quot%3B+super+kodiak+recurve_i20201X_baseitem.html, please verify the brace heigth. Generally you're looking at 3 1/2 to 4" less than the bow length.

You have to pick the length to add it to your cart. 54" is listed. The number of strands should be matched to the draw weight. I'm no expert but both the 14 and 16 strand strings work fine on my 50# draw bear recurve.

According to the ad you can set the draw between 13 and 30 inches and between 5 and 70 lbs. Mine was set to 65 lbs and 24". If you don't know what you are doing I suggest taking it to a pro to set the bow up. I did that and he worked on it for a bit to get the draw length right. Take the instructions with you, if it isn't a bow they sell and work on regularly they will need to see them. Great bow, easy to shoot.

I'm not real sure what you are asking. I am using a recurve bow with a 25 pound pull with 28 inch arrow. I am not very strong either and having no trouble with the 25 pound pull. I hope this helps you.

The 80 will have more strands than the 50 so the 80 will be thicker and stronger. The number refers to the poundage of the bow so the string can withstand well over 80 pounds.

28" inch arrows seems to work best, I wouldn't go less than that. 30" might be good except more of the shaft would stick out the end. In Competition only the 28" would be used anyways. These bows are used and recognized by most all school archery classes and competitions. They like 28". hope this helps you.

Your bow should be fine. I think the response concerning the crossbow was a bit "overstated". I'm shooting a 60# compound w/field tips and they went in 3-5 ". I've taken mine apart after more than 2000 shots and recycled the contents into a replacement bag cover which I highly recommend doing! ;0)

You'll need a 56 in since your bow is 60 in. I have this bow. Basic rule on this type is 4 in shorter than the full length of bow. Have fun!

If there is no AMO string length on the bow, then you can start with the tip to tip (unstrung) as a "pretty close" length. If the old string is intact, it will probably have stretched if it's not a fast-flight string, so go a 1/2" or so shorter. The AMO string will measure about 4" shorter than what the package says. I have a bunch of Bill Stewart recurves with the "multicam" wrinkle in them and found the string length needed when not listed is very close to the tip to tip measurement, keeping in mind the Stewart limbs have a more radical curve at the tip. Base height when strung should be around 6-3/4" to 7-1/2" ( distance from innermost section of grip to string). May want to go a bit long and then twist the string to get dialed in, string should have some twists anyway and if it is well waxed the twists tend to "set".

I am probably not going to be much help here. The size I believe goes with the size of the arrow shaft. I bought this item for my wife and I just made a guess at which one she needed. I went with medium. I know trophy ridge has a website with size you would need for the arrows you use. Again I know that wasn't much help, sorry.

Decent intermediate bow. 55 #'s is very hard to pull back for a recurve, however. I shoot a 70# compound, and I wish I maybe got 45-50# recurve. Great bow though, and easy to take apart.

Jonathan, 60 pounds might be the draw weight that you are looking for but 60 inches ('') would be one large bow. If you are looking for your draw length, then measure your wingspan and divide it by 2.5. This should get you in the ball park for draw length. Draw weight is the amount of weight you need to get the bow to full draw. This is more of trial and error/what you feel most comfortable with. With this bow you have the flexibility of adjustably to fine tune it to your needs. Best, Bruce

Bows like this don't come in a "draw length", but the poundage they list is usually written at a 29" draw length. So if you're draw length is more than that you will get a lot more than the listed poundage.

No. These arrows are only rated for bows up to 35lbs. In most states, 35lbs is the absolute minimum legal draw weight for any bow intended for hunting. These arrows also have a basic target point pre-installed. They are great for target practice, but there are so many quality customizable hunting arrows out there that it really isn't worth trying to retrofit these for hunting.

You can go to a big 5, or you can go to there website. It is a 150 pound crossbow string.

I didn't know, so I chose the medium one, as what most people do when cannot decide; but it fit my bow perfectly. I have a Martin saber takedown recurve, 64" in length, using 28"arrow
