I'd get another 62" Liberty Edge, bocote riser and yew core, like the one I just got from Mr. Boice last month. Until that one was finished I'd buy the Contender that Pokerdaddy has listed in the classifieds.

Probably play it safe and replace my one pc Hummingbird alpha male. Whippenstick would be tempting also though.

God forbid something ever happens to my Schulz…
If something did, once I recovered from my depression, I'd beg Nate Steen to build me a Sunset Hill identical to my Schulz: 66" 67# @26" backset brown glass & bamboo limbs and a myrtle riser.
If I couldn't get a Sunset Hill I'd have Dave Miller build me a bow to my Schulz's specs.

This is a very interesting topic, I've read trough 16 pages & only a hand full of ilf rigs & metal risers. I would have expected to see more, as they were getting pretty hot a year or so ago?
I prefer traditional wood 3 piece recurves myself. Now as for witch one,,, that's tuff with so many great builders.
I'm currently waiting on a Bigfoot from Kirk Lavender! So that better be my answer.

I love all my bows. But as strange as it may sound I would choose my Dorado. It's the one bow I could always pick up and hit the mark no matter how long I neglect it. My other bows take longer to get familiar with again. Who would have thought a production bow could feel like it was custom made for me?

Get ahold of Mike Hays in Pueblo and have him build me another 3 piece takedown Black Canyon longbow 64" 58#@28" to replace mine. And then talk him into lending me his one piece in the same specs to pass the time til mine is built. And probably do like Ron W and hit the classifieds.....

Probably, a Hill Wesley Special or Hill Cheetah. Either way, it would be 68" long and draw either 50 or 55#. (I prefer 65# but a shoulder injury just doen't want to completely heal.)
I have two of each of these Hill bows, but I would also consider a Hill Redman with these specs.
Another very strong consideration would be a Northern Mist.

Not sure, but I know it would be built by Gregg Coffey or Steve Turay.

Haven't spent enough time with my 40@28 A&H ACS yet so if I had to answer today, I'd be looking to replace my 92 Widow MA111, 46@28. Always have and always will love that bow.
