Pastor it's funny but I own two of the four bows you mentioned.Brushbow and a "Creek". First both bowyers are great folks.Doug Witcher from Turkey Creek I consider a true friend. Both excellent bows but with very different risers/handles.The Brushbow has a very sculpted riser with a thumb slot makes for consistant hand placement which benefits accuracy but not cut to center.. The Creek has a more traditional longbow style grip with a slight palm swell to the inside of your palm, very comfortable and cut to center. If I had to choose one bow wow.Speed wise the Creek is faster carbonized action boo limbs black glass. The Brushbow has maple limbs black glass plenty quick.Both bows are very quiet.The Creek is 62"s the Brushbow is 58"s. The Creek is smoother on the draw. The Creek is so easy to shoot you don't even have to think.Bottom line if you can shoot the bows you're better off.My choice is the Creek. Hope I helped.

Pastor,

I have shot Bentpole's Creek bow. It is a very sweet shooting bow, very smooth and no hand shock. Just point at where you want the arrow to hit and it's there! I have a Hornes Recurve that I love, but it's not what your looking for....right? LOL Any way Bentpole and I live close to each other and are friends. One day I'll compair both his bows and decide which one I like better and bump him on his head and run like heck! LOL

I just got my Toelke Whip and I would not change it for the world. Check out Dan's Bows at his website. montanabows.com, I will be posting some pics next. Best of luck with your decision, mine was made after talking to Dan, I felt like I could trust him, I was not disappointed.  Pals, Suty
