I don't have a picture but my Purist longbow is my favorite bow. It is 60lb at 28, laminated bamboo under clear glass.

Robertson longbows have been at the top of my list for many years and I'm hunting with one this year.  I think I have three right now, one is a Heritage model from his early years.  I'll get a few pics taken for you.

I have a Pearce point cocobolo with juniper veneers longbow and a beautiful myrtle handle and book matched myrtle veneered longbow from Dick.  I tried to sell one last year, but I just could not part with that Pearce point.  I have pictures on this computer of the myrtle, but I cannot remember how to reduce the picture size right now, I am tired.

Here's the only picture that I could find of mine on my computer.  I believe it's the Mystical.  It was my first trad bow - bought it 20 years ago.  It's 77# @ 29" so I don't shoot it much anymore due to my worn out shoulders.  I love the bow and Robertson was great to deal with when I had it made.

I shoot a 67#@28" Mystical and a 53#@28" Primal Styk.  I have shot alot of different bows and owned alot of bows from other boyers, none of them fit me quite like a Robertson.  I am terrible about pictures (I don't take them) but I will try to get some here for you to see.  I really like my Robertson bows.  I have just quit buying other bows because I always sell them in a few months.  I never shoot them.  Anytime I grab a bow to shoot, it WILL be the Mystical or the Primal Styk.

I am thinking about ordering a Tribal Styk in the near future.     :bigsmyl:

I just bought one from a fellow Tradganger..66" and about 55# at my draw lenth.  Cocobolo riser and Bamboo cores with Yew lams.  Its the Vision model..anyway I can't say enough good things about it.  It was easy to tune and real easy to shoot.  I wish I would have tried them sooner, I could have saved alot of money.

I have numerous Robertsons and they are my go to bows!  I have never shot another bow as smooth and forgiving as well as flat spits out an arrow like them!
Luck has nothing to do with it, just Boot leather and a GWP.

I think they are a nice bow.

I will let you know in a couple of weeks. This summer while on vacation with my wife we went by Dick's and I picked out the woods for my new longbow. It will have an ebony riser and figured myrtle limbs. 64" 50@28". It should be here in a couple of weeks.

I have three Purist bows, that are 62", in 54, 63 and 70 lbs., and a 64" Mystical in 64#. They are smooth, quiet, plenty fast, and a pleasure to shoot.

There is a nice TD for sale on this site.
