Years ago I had a HH style longbow that shot fairly good but had some hand shock. Charlie Lamb retillered and cleaned the bow up and it shot great. No hand shock and smooth back to my 29” draw. I was a one bow man. Then one day I pulled a muscle in my shoulder and had a hard time shooting the 65# bow. I set it aside and started looking for a bow I liked and could shoot. My big mistake was selling the longbow to fund my next bow. I been looking for several years. This year I feel I have found my one bow again. A 55# @ 29” St. Joe River 62” longbow. As long as I do my part this little bow hits where I look.

I have 2 in reality but really go to 1 bow.
My two is listed just below in my sig line but my go to bow is the Zona, for some reason that bow & I are as one when it comes to shooting & I have shot my best with that bow even when I had lighter weight or other combinations it just seems to fit me perfectly & it seems to know where I want that arrow to go.
The Sky Hawk is a close second but is my back up bow.

I have three. However, I use my St. Joe River Bow (longbow) almost exclusively! I have another SJRB 'curve, that is for backup, and sometimes for late season. Plus I have a t/d robertson.
I don't see a need for another (although, I have really, really wanted another), but for the cost of another bow ($600-$1000), I can do A LOT of huntig for that much money! Personally, I would rather go on a hunt somewhere then have another bow hanging on the hook.
