I would probably go with a Pronghorn or a Northern Mist Witbeck.

If the grip agree's with ya...ACS CX...They are an awesome shooting bow, I just didn't love the Std. grip, I would like to try one with the recurve grip.

I will try and get you the pictures of my Bears Paw Longbow 64in 48@30 cocobolo/bocote with eastern diamondback skins.

Less than 2 months old and is honestly the best looking bow i have ever seen.

Pastor Steve:

Look closely at the Rivers Edge LX...I've got a CLX (Compact Riser) and it is a great shooter.

Best of luck.

I second the Cari-bow Silver Fox. I don't own one but have shot one, it was smooth, fast and very easy on the eyes (Abe's bows are incredible). Check out the Cari-bow website if you haven't already, it is in the sponser list.  Good luck with your quest.

Out of all I have owned and shot the one I recommend without hesitation is Bigfoot Sasquatch. If there is a faster, better shooting or looking threepiece longbow made I do not know of it. Other than I am biased to Eaglewing. LOl

God bless, Steve

Don't know your budget, but there is a bowyer not far from me who makes a very nice bow at a very reasonable price ... Dry Ridge Archery.  I had him make me a 62" longbow with a Cocobolo riser for that little extra mass.  Love it!  I posted pics of it on here a while back.  I'd post another pic but I forget how ... AGAIN!

Of the many bows I've owned, my Pronghorns have been my favorites.

PasterSteveHill, I just received my new Pronghorn 3 piece longbow this evening.  I got the 62" for shooting out of a tree stand.  I love the bow.  I'm shooting Grizzly Stiks out of it and it just screams.  The bow is quite without string silencers, smooth draw and shoots right where I'm looking.  I'll buy another one of these days.  Yes, Herb is a super guy.
