I've seen the black widow PSR and Mahaska...are there any others that are good quality? The PSR is EXPENSIVE!

yes but my PSR sure is sweet and smooth. you won't go wrong. Call them about a test drive. I have a 56 inch 49# at 28 inch draw it is a great bow

Ancient Spirits' one piece Kadiak. Awesome bow.

Couldn't find a website for Bow River either. I just remembered them from when I was on my own 50's style search a couple years ago. I have a brochure I sent away for somewhere.

There is a McCullough 59er in the classifieds here right now. Hard pressed to find a better 50s style.

Agree with vermonster13 on the McCullough 59er.

One of the best grips out there.

59er looks awesome. Get that one!

the fox breed is pretty cool...their website wasn't too informative though.....how much are they retail?

Whip · « **Reply #11 on:** November 26, 2007, 11:26:00 PM »

Yeah, please buy that 59'r. I can't stand looking at it anymore, and my keyboard is about to short out from the drool....

My thoughts exactly Joe.

I own 2 Mahaska's,great bows!

The Great Nothern Super Ghost has more of a R/D longbow riser. What you are looking for is a Ghost. The best thing to ever come along for me!

Apex Predator · « **Reply #15 on:** November 27, 2007, 10:36:00 AM »

Great Northern Ghost!

You might also look at Sovereign Trident

Unfortunately, Rick Lepp (Bow River Archery) isn't in the bow building business anymore. I called him, for some info on a used longbow I bought. It's too bad, he made some really nice bows.

Bill Carlsen · « **Reply #18 on:** November 27, 2007, 12:51:00 PM »

Try Acadian Woods.

The PSR may be considered expensive, but they are nice, and they hold their value very well!
