Pronghorn..... I have a 1-piece that is an excellent shooter.  Smooth draw, quiet shooting, and quick.  I've ordered a 3-piece just to have more mass weight, hope to have it in March.  Another that I would highly recommend is a Leon Stewart. Can't say enough good things about a Stewart, since I have a 1-piece and 3-piece that I shoot both often.  Good luck on your decision.

I like my firefly and have seen several other guys on here who liked the ones they have.

I'm putting my vote in for the Orion also. Shoots great, looks great is real fast and quiet. And you get Mike and Jason standing behind it all the way. You can't go wrong.

All great bows. I shoot a Pronghorn and am well pleased. Good bow for the money and Herb is a straight shooter to deal with.
Aw heck, Buy one of each and see which one you shoot the most!   :bigsmyl:

Nurayb, I have shot most of the ones you listed, and a some not on your list.   I own a Dryad 3 piece longbow, for the money a great bow.   As good or better than any 3 piece longbow, no matter the price.

You can't go wrong with a Pronghorn.  I just got my first one this August and absolutely love it.  In the past there was a huge list of bows I wanted to buy/own in my lifetime but after shooting the Pronghorn I can't imagine owning/shooting anything else.  If i was going to buy another 3 pc longbow it would be a Yellowstone Bow made in Wyoming by Rich Wormington.   I have one of his  1 pc longbows and it's an awesome bow as well.  He makes some awesome looking 3 pc longbows and I've heard nothing but good feedback about them.  He has some great photos on his webiste as well.

  Good luck

Thanks everyone.  Vernon, those Yellowstone's are nice looking bows.  Looks like I have another option and more confusion.
