One of these three I think.Just added another ILF to the stable but haven't decided if it will meet the needs yet still deciding on a limb combo.The one in the middle is the go to combo.

I've mentioned my new Big River a couple of times and now have pictures.  2 weeks from order to delivery.  Cocobolo riser and Myrtle veneers over a bamboo core.  66" R/D 60#'s @28"  Shoots as good as it looks.

Bought the Samick Deermaster this year.  Unreal, the bang-for-buck in this bow.  It's quiet, fast and smooth.  Hits where I'm looking.  Couldn't ask for $200 better spent.

I'm thinking my Martin Hunter will stay on the shelf this year.

Some of my bow traffic so far this year is pictured below.

I am the most pleased with the Silvertip because the specifications are 100% my choices.

I sold TT, Checkmate, Green Stripes, and Bear Limbs.  I traded a Blacktail Elite for the PCHX.

The Widows are extremely great feeling and SOLID shooters.

The Chastain was an experiement -- The brand and the camo dipping.

I also picked up Bear A and B Mag bows this past January/February.

I shot the Tip, PCHX, Bear TD, and "The Stick" today -- so far.

I have only two bows on order right now; Snakebit due in July or August and a Habu due in 20 months that will likely be replaced by a Tradganger's Habu I'm contemplating hard.

My Bear TD A riser also arrived a few weeks ago. I bought an inventory Fatal Styk from Robertson also.

By Tradganger -- Widow PCHX Myrtle -- RW's Bear
 

By Tradganger -- Chastain Wapiti (Predator)
 

Silvertip -- Rosewood, Macassar and Myrtle

 

Widow PAX -- Cocobolo (under the predator)
