Toelke Whip longbow (60-in., 52 lbs @ 28 in.).

Backup plan: my previous hunting buddy, a Quinn Stallion Classic recurve (60-in., 47 lbs @ 28 in.), is always ready to hit the woods.

I've been shooting all sorts of bows (recurve, longbow, and self-bows) this Summer, but I think it will be my new Fred Anderson longbow.  57# @ 28", 68" long, with Pat Carter custom fir arrows. This was a bow used as a display at Fred's booths, that he went "all-out" with.  Got to get some perfectly matched to this bow first.  I have shot several types of bows, and I am very far from an expert, but this Fred Anderson bow is unbelievable.
