Mygo to bow at present is my 50#@28" Fox Royal Crown longbow.  In about 3 months though, I should be receiving a Border Harrier GL longbow which should give it a run for its money!

I own 5 right now and shoot all of them well. Although for some reason I prefer my longbows over my recurves.

Ive got a few but have 2 that I can pick up anytime and shoot well with even if Im in a slump, a 56 in. 66@28 Groves Spitfire Mag I, bow is smooth and smoking fast, can shoot it as 30 yds as good as I shoot my other bows at 20. The other is a 60 in. Sterling Jensen 63@28 T/D curve that I like as much as the Groves and shoot almost as well, its fast and dead quiet.

Mine is an ash selfbow, 67" ntn, 47#@28"

Shot at  an eggshell on a string  today at 20 yards. Of 9 arrows, 3  were in the shell, others were close. Bow weighs nothing compared to a laminated bow. It's my go  to  bow.

I have  eight bows, a mix of recurve and longbows. But my go to bow is my Howard Hill Big Five, i just seem to hit better with that bow and it's a pleasure to shoot.

My go to is a Sovereign Trident.  Smoth, light weight, fast, quiet and shoots where I am looking.  Just love the feel and it just fits.
Life is short.  Shoot the good arrows first.

I would have to say my RER Arroyo, it just feels right in my hand.  It is fast,smooth and very stable.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, with bible in hand and loudly proclaim...WOW...What a Ride!!!

Lots of RER's and Widow's are go to bows.  Mine right now is a 64" Treadway longbow.  Maybe it's because it still smells new (just less than 3 weeks old) or maybe because it is the only I have shot much since I got it.

Now I think it's going to be my Kota. Up until I bought it, I always shot the best with my ugly old Black Bear, so it was my go-to bow. Now I'm gonna set it up for bowfishing.

Has to be my 60" Great Plains Original T/D recurve. I can sit that bow down for a year, pick it up and hit dead on. Not the fastest bow around but smooth, silent and deadly!
