You're doing yourself a huge disservice if you have left the Zipper Nitro off your list.  I've tried most of those mentioned, find a Nitro!

I have a Stickflinger and a Fox Triple crown. Both are excellent bows. The triple crown is a light physical weight but accurate with the best craftmanshift. The Stickflinger has more physical weight and shoots well. I have a black river hybrid on order and would like to try a Royal crown.

Great advice everyone. It's exciting reading others impressions of bows I'd like to own. Out of curiosity, have any of you shot or owned the take/down Silvertip?

   I have shot most all bows you mentioned as well but am shooting the Zipper Nitros . Nothing smoother or faster that I have shot.

Anyone tried one of the Foley T/D longbows? I've seen quite a few on RMS's site. They look great...

Haven't shot a Foley,  he stopped making bows.  Only heard good things about them.  Probably the last one's he made that you see.

I have owned or at least shot most of those on your list.  The A&H is the fastest, but also very loud and heavy. Caribou are second only to high dollar blacktails as far as beauty.  Fox triple crown is gorgeous and very good shooter for those who love recurve style risers/grips. If shaefer is what you love, always cheaper to buy the best once....Best shooting 3 piece hybrid IMHO? = Tall Tines!!
