I won't say here, otherwise I might get some stupidly ridiculous offer that makes me change my mind.    :biglaugh:

My first self bow, and my first self made fiberglass lam bow.

The best bow that I regret selling the most out of 40 or so, would have to be my Great Northern Ghost recurve.

There is 2 actually. The first Dad picked out a week before he died,it has an inscription on the bow for him. The next one I have coming in another few weeks. This one my daughter picked out for me, and has an inscription on it as well. These bows are priceless to me, and they will be handed down to my daughter when I die.

the bow that started it all for me, a 62" snowshoe longbow. I also have 2 original silvertips that are off limits and hopefully my new silvertip that should be here tomarrow.

My Massie Longhorn.  Over the years, I have owned probably 8-10 Longhorns and no one makes 'em like Jeff did.  This one has an all Bocote riser with the double blade swoop, Action-boo core lams with bamboo veneers and carbon in the limbs.  She is 62" and 49# @ 28".  Of all the bows I have owned (and there have been many) this is my all time "keeper".

My first hunting longbow, 68" & 75#@28" Proline Saxon now still in VG condition. I hunt with it. Easy to sell, impossible to replace.
