I would also look at Morrison, Acadian, Lewis Hollow, and Ancient Spirits.

I have a Yellowstone "Half-Breed" (three piece).  It is a great shooting bow and I would not trade it for any other.  I have shot it right along side a Pronghorn and I no longer feel the need to purchase a Pronghorn.  Rich's attention to detail is first rate and he is great to work with.

hey pops!   I'll 2nd. Ancient Spirits. I have a Sequoia and really like it. SUPER good folk to deal with, the price is reasonable and the craftmanship is excellent not to mention they shoot great.

Pops, Check into a CrookedStic. I picked up a used one about a month ago and I love it. His Attention to detail is top notch.

I own or have owned 3 different 3-piece T/Ds a Horne an Ancient Spirit Sequoia and a Fedora Xtreme. They are all great shooting and very well made bows. I just don’t care for their physical weight. I personally feel that a longbow should be very light. Funny thing is I don’t mind the heavier weight of a 3-piece recurve.

Check out GrizzlyBows.  He makes a nice 3 piece that shoots better than any other 3 piece longbow I've ever shot.  Mine's 55 lbs and shoots the same arrow as fast as my old 70 lb one piece shoots.  It's sweet in the hand too, no shock.  Reasonably priced without a lot of waiting time too.  There's some pics on the website- grizzlybows.com, you'll see how they look.
