Primary- Dryad Orion 62" 63@28in.

Backup-  Fox Arctic Fox 64" 58@28in.  But a new to me Fox Tripple Crown on the way that could turn this all on it's head depending on how it shoots.

Main is a Trad Tech Black Onyx ILF with long limbs that are #45 @ 30"

Back up is a Samick Stingray 1 piece that is #49 @ 30".

Both bows shoot a little different but the handle is shaped exactly the same so in that way they're very similar.

My main bow is definitely my TD RER vortex with the bow-bolt.  My backup is my RER TD recurve.  If I ever get to go elk or moose hunting, I would reverse that order.

My main go to bow is a Habu VyperKahn with 2 sets of limbs. 47# @ 28, 62" and 49# @ 27, 60" triple carbon. My backups are a Cascade Golden Hawk Mag, 48 @ 28, 52" and a Check Mate Firebird, 51 @ 28, 56".
 I just bought a Super Shrew Samuri from a tradganger, 48# @ 26", 58" long that is a great shooting bow. It may end up being my go to  bow or a backup. I need to shoot it some more.
 I shoot the same 2016's from all of  these.

#1 is an osage selfbow that I got from a friend it's 68" and 68@28

#2 is a Wes Wallace Royal longbow that is 60@28.

I prefer the selfbow of the two and that's what I shoot 99% of the time.

My husband, Pavan, shoots Robertson longbows and John Schulz bows mostly.  My main bow has been a sweet Darton, 43 at 28" and my backup a 41 pound Red Wing.  That will change if the auction goes my way.
