My go to one piece is my Crow Creek Dalton.  62" and 51 @ 28".  I'm in a toss up whether I like the Dalton or Blackfeather better.  I have both but I've been shooting the Dalton way more than the Blackfeather.  

The Dalton is very light.  I'm guessing less than 2 pounds and from what I understand some people prefer a heavier bow for stability.  Mine shoots smoothly with no handshock whatsoever.  

Just came in from shooting it a few minutes ago.  I made a backup string for it and had to test fire it.  I'll be using it for pigs this weekend.

An old hand me down recurve sparked the fire, Trad Gang fanned the flames.  There is no stopping now.  Burn baby burn!

Don't really have a special one.All mine I can grab at the drop of a hat and go hunting with.Everything that has a string on it is my go to bow.  :)

Chekmate Crusader.  62"  56# @ 28".  Just feels good in the hand.  Very forgiving  (which I need) and just shoots where I point.
