Hard to go wrong with either.  If you like a heavier rise you can get the lee with a phenolic riser.

I love my Thunderstick II, but I'm partial to low wristed grips.

Thunderstick for me, but some prefer the Lee.  Can't go wrong with either

I have 2 Thunderstick III, 2 MOAB, and a Thunderstick Mag and all of Jim Reynolds bows are great shooters.

I never shot a thunderstick but I have three bob lee's just love these bows. Grip is awesome and shoots pretty fast and very quiet. Cant wait to receive my bob lee that is camo dipped and big jim is putting a beavertail grip on it this week. JJ at bob lee is a awesome dude and very friendly. If you can I would shoot both and than make up your mind, cant go by what works for everyone else, if a bow fits you only you will know.

My suggestion is a short risered bob lee.  I got my wife a short risered recurve and I can't lie...I find my self shooting it ALOT.  It's all in the grip and it seems to be built more for a bow mounted quiver which I prefer...especially my favorite great northerns.  Either strap on or quick disconnect.  Plus it has a great profile and for a three piece it's very secure and quiet.  

Thundersticks are awesome as well but it's all in the grip for me.

I have a Bob Lee stick I bought used. I really like the grip and it has a large sight window. It is not the fastest bow, but I shoot it well.

I never shot a Thunderstick.

I've never shot a Thunderstick but I love my Bob Lee stickbow and get lots of comments on it. It's beautiful and the grip makes going back and forth between it and my recurve pretty easy.
