Mr. King makes beautiful bows!  I really like the look of his risers. 

I hadn't looked through Fox's site before today... thank you for that.  Nice to know they shoot, too.

I've watched compound guys pick up one of my bows and drive tacks. They ARE shooters for sure!

My favorites, MOAB, Big River and Moosejaw are all not being made anymore.  All made by exceptional bowyers.  There are many others out there.

I hunted primarily with Bear Takedowns and DAS bows for decades. This year I sold all them and returned to my favorite bow - ASLs - as I wind down my bowhunting. My favorite now is Jim Belcher’s Hill Jack or Union Jack both true ASLs. Both are very similar except that the Hill Jack has all four laminations on the back of the riser and the Union Jack has three lams on the back and one on the belly. His craftsmanship is superb and the bows perform well for a string follow bow.  This is a Union Jack.

As much as I enjoy my Bear T/D's, Blacktail and Widow, the ones I like the most and shoot the best are my Pittsley Preditors. I still have some with 60" limbs, but prefer the 62". They are between 47 and 51#. Beautiful, fast and a pleasure to shoot. Ron (rest his soul) did it right !
