A couple Black Widows and a Morrison and a Quillon , I find they are so much easier to travel with , I have an older aluminum compound bow case thay can hold 2 takedown bows about 2 and 1/2 dozen arrows and still have room for some clothes . By the way did you ever get hooked up with some fish arrows ? Fred

have two Widows that, unfortunately, aren't getting much use, and 4 Hill sleeve take downs.   I really like the sleeve take downs... nothing could be simpler.   In fact, it looks like Widow has gone to a variation of it in their new system.     Travel is the issue... not a problem with the minivan, but try getting two peopls, some gear and a few longbows into a Geo Metro!

Here's a pic of my travel setup:

 

That's a Hill and a Widow and I can get a dozen arrows in the case.  The case is a standard $30 plastic arrow case, generally available at most archery shops.

I have 3 Fred Bear t/d recurves and 2 St. Charles longbows. I love the t/d's; in fact I made some t/d arrows that I plan on hunting with this coming season.

Black Widow, Bear B Handles, Bruin WoodMaster. Take downs fit better in a bush plane.
 

I have some old ones too that are fun to shoot from time to time.....

I dont own any store bought takedowns (or any store bought bows at all for that matter), but I've built a few.  Here are two that I happen to have pics of on photobucket:

My sleeved takedown hickory recurve:

 

My three piece red oak takedown:

A Ballistick recurve TD and a Treadway long bow.  Prefer the single piece but needed something for the ease of traveling.
