I've owned 2 Morrison recurves.Great bows.I now have a Silvertip,Zipper,and Stalker in a recurve.
I have a Habu Vyperkahn longbow that's has all the qualities of any recurve I've shot and have yet to shoot a bow that's more stable.
The best way to discribe this bow''Easiest bow too shoot accurately w/''.

Look at a Holm-Made Osprey or Goshawk......
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

I got this from Herb's website.

Pronghorn Reflex Deflex
The pronghorn is a lightweight, compact straight ended bow for the modern bowhunter who appreciates tradition, but wants up-to-date performance. Owners report hunting arrow speeds in the 190-200 foot-per-second range – with virtually no hand shock. It’s a pound and a quarter of fast-shooting easy-carrying reliability. Now available in a three piece takedown model.  Each bow is handmade, one at a time, from design, to grinding of laminations, to shipment. Only one person handles each bow before it is delivered to your door. A Flemish Fast Flight String is standard with each bow, but I will substitute Dacron if requested.

I have shot recurves all of my life. Some reason i had an urge to get a long bow. I got a Royal Crown made by Ron Fox from another tradganger. This is a hybrid long bow that has now become my go to bow. Simply Amazing.
