that one bow
« on: May 21, 2007, 05:50:00 PM »
does anyone else have that one bow that you are always coming back to no matter how many other bows you try, for me, its a hill style hickory selfbow, I have shot that bow so many times that I know where the arrow will hit every time

For me it's a custom grip Morrison shawnee 56" 61@28.  Just can't put her down for long.

My first pronghorn, I hate to think I can replace it with all the bows I buy.  But I want what works well, and so far thats it..

RER  Vortex. Even though I have 5 other RER bows this just seems to me the bow I go to most.<><

My Habu T/D, however I'm starting to get awful comfortable and consistent with my Marriah Thermal and I have an RER or order. Not sure yet if I'll hunt with the Habu or the Thermal this year.

I am shooting Black WIdow PL's right now, but the one bow that was "Magic" for me was a MOAB. I am dealing to get a used one as I write this. The PL bows are sweet, but my MOAB had Mojo...I hope the next one does as well! Mike

Well now it is my Shrew Classic Hunter and I am confident it be for years to come.  However I can pick up a Bear Super K anywhere anytime and shoot the lights out with that bow.

Of the twenty or so bows I own the only one that gets strung in the last two years is my DAS...best hunting bow I ever shot...and I have shot a few since 1951 or so.

It's always a Morrison. I'm still testing though.
If it's in your way, move it.
