Hey Samuel! The R3 Recurve uses an industry standard shank so you can swap it out for one that will fit your 2-1/2" receiver. You can choose from the following based on the rise/drop you need:
-Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank - 2-1/2" Hitch - 7" Rise, 3" Drop # EQ90-02-4700
-Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank - 2-1/2" Hitch - 8" Rise, 4" Drop # EQ90-02-4800
-Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank - 2-1/2" Hitch - 10" Rise/6" Drop # EQ90-02-4900
-Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution Shank - 12" Long - 13" Rise, 9" Drop # EQ94FR
It is acceptable to use a reducer sleeve like the # BPH75YR you looked at as well. I prefer swapping out the shank so you have less parts involved and a nice, solid connection.
