    Maybe a bit more efficient, but still not specifically designed for shorter draw.
    I shot one for years as well. They are hard for me to shoot enough to get good with at my draw length. In your situation, either get a bow five pounds heavier or go with something that can be tailor built to your draw length. Border comes to mind. Another option is a riser with ILF limb fitment. There are now a few 17" ILF risers intended for hunting. Couple one of those with some short or extra short limbs and I'm sure that you can come up with a bow that excels at 26". I'm presently playing with carbon foam limbs and loving the smoothness and cast.

      Already on order.

      Of course, I'm just now getting back into a recurve. Haven't shot much of anything the last 10-12 years. I used to shoot longbow at 58#. The long layoff and being 67 now, kinda puts a stop to using all my old equipment... way too heavy.

      If I really, really get back into it, I'll experiment with some limb designs that I myself can make.
      Was on the verge of doing so when I stopped bow hunting.
