Actually I have several hunting bows that draw my attention, but two cause me real consternation. I have two Northern Mist Sheltons. One is green glass with bamboo core. The other is built of yew - man what a beauty! I think the yew is just a tad smoother, but I am very confident with either bow. Both of them are 53# at 28" draw and are 68" long. I feel almost like a gunfighter with two evenly matched six guns.
Well lets make it simpler for you and let me take the green Shelton off your hands!    :)

I wish I had some of y'alls problems!

One bow guy here. I'm so "persnickety" with setups and everything else, I'm better off with just one really

Just got in that predicament recently. Until then, once I got hold of my 7 lakes String Follow everything stayed on the rack and I only shot the one bow. Since both of my sons and some of my grand kids are left eye dominant, I recently got me a dual shelf Thunderbird for them to fight over when I am gone. I am trying to give the 7 Lakes and the St. Charles equal time now.

I avoided this predicament for a long while, but now due to some beneficial trading, I'm in deep. My Hoyt Buffalo is my first love, but now I through an ILF rig into the fold. Tribe Halo riser, Trad Tech longbow limbs. But the hardest part is hiding them from each other...

I have a 7 Lakes Archery String Follow and Back Set bows.  I can't decided which one I like the best.

I'm stuck between an Osage selfbow and a 1963 Bear Grizzly.  I've killed 2 deer with a selfbow already.  Getting one with a vintage FG bow has been on my bucket list so I'm leaning that way.

A Wes Wallace takedown Royal has been the go to for quite a while.. Been pondering short long bows, got to try out an Elkhart, 10" shorter, and 10 lbs heavier, I gots to get me one!
Plan on mostly being a serial monogamist when I finally get my sweaty paws on my very own Elkhart..

I have a solution. ... one bow.  I've had my eye on several others, but I just cannot cheat on my BW longbow!

Maybe one day.....
