I own a Toelke Chinook, Great Plains Rio Bravo and 2 62" Mojosticks. Of all the recurves I've shot, these are the best "for me". The other is the Great Plains Swift, which is on my wish list.

(At least it was there an hour or so ago) In our site's Traditional Bows the 58" 46# Thunder Stick at $360 would be one great buy. Bill

I recently acquired a new Toelke recurve. I can't say enough good things about it. Might give the website a look. Just google Toelke or Montana Bows.

That Super Wildcat on the first page is beautiful for sure. I'd like to shoot one of those someday.
But, I can say that the Widow PA's are really nice bows. I don't think that you would be disappointed with one at all.
I'm sure that there are other one-piece bows that are just as nice, but I don't know if they'd be any better.

The best is Jack Howard's Gamemaster Jet, and it is no longer made. Someone may sell you one and they are spendy, but you did ask for the best right?

This is a Blacktail "Snakebit" in a one-piece. It shoots great. The limb veneers are lacewood and snakewood. The riser is snakewood footed with wenge. It's a "keeper". 62" 55#@28"

Wow!!. So much porn in one thread. Some beautiful bows and any of the names mentioned all have to be the potential to be best bow we ever owned.

I have a Howatt X-200. While they have been a great company to deal with, after reading on these forums for a while now, I think I would avoid buying a big factory bow. They are overpriced and just don't look as nice.
