Already got them.

Brackenbury Quest(two of them)
Brackenbury Non-Typical(coming in trade)
Cari-bow Silver Fox with two sets of limbs(coming in February)

That is it!

Yeah I know,LOL,I have owned and sold/traded a bunch of bows, most every bow out there,LOL, but have parred them down to these. Thats my story and I am sticking to it. Well there is one curve made by an Aussie maker I am on the lookout for,LOL.
