I agree 100% with having only one woman. When it comes to bows... That's another story. Maybe I can answer with what my favorite bow is "This Season":

Custom Recurve Grip RER Vortex, 56",53# @ 28" that I got here on Trad Gang in a trade. At my 26" draw (47#) it can be a nice one for deer hunting, 3D and stump shootin' all day, all night, Maryann.   ;)

A couple of days ago I would have said my ACS. Now that I just picked up a Dale Dye. I have to go with the Dye.

I have limited myself to just one bow, my 54# @ 28 60" silvertip because, that one bow feel's like an old hat. I like the way it settle's into my hand and I know when everything is just right! but... I would like to have another just like it! Jason

A couple of months ago my answer may not have been the same. But today I'd say a 66" 4 or 5 lam Hill bow, about 50 pounds at 29".

If I ever had to make that decision, it would be my Pronghorn 3-pc., 64".

Haven't had to deal with this problem since I was 6.
I believe that is the age I last owned only 1 bow.

However, with all the great bows I have owned I think my choice would have to be a Bear Kodiak, 60", 60-65#@28. Have always had at least 2 Kodiaks in my harem since I was 7, and believe I could kill anything on earth with one of these specs.

But if I did have only 1 bow I'd be looking at every tree I passed sizing them up to start scraping one down to make bow #2.

My Predator.

I have several bows around here, but I hunt with my Predator only. I have an old Martin Lynx recurve that is geared for bow fishing, but that`s it.

It amazes me to see the bow racks some shooters have. I wouldn`t be able to deal with that much decision making.
