I own a couple great plains 3 pc take downs and they are great shooting solid bows and have been around for years. Just shot a Sky 3 pc longbow not too long ago and that is also a fine shooting longbow with alot of adjustment. It will be one of my next bows. Dino

Jim, I checked out the new Robertson 3 pc. at Cloverdale. It was one of the "eco" models....no frills but it was a great looking little bow! The grip is what impressed me the most-just melted into my hand. Right at $600 and it is made by one (two) of the premier bowyers in the world! Good luck on your "bow" hunt! Mike

I had an RER LX. It was a fantastic shooting and handling bow. Very well made. Everything was top notch. LoweBow has it now, sniff lol. I highly suggest you check out the RER.

I would check out the Dan Toelke's 3 piece from Montana Longbows. There was a very recent post on them in Pow Wow. Fast, quiet, and awesome looking bows.

Stalker by South Cox. Great grip, workmanship, and great shooters. He is a sponsor here also. Good luck.

I'll second the Sarrels Blueridge. It is my go-to bow. As a matter of fact, it is going to Africa with me in 13 days.
