Big Jim Thunderchild (on the way), Cari-bow, Tall Tines, Centaur, Shrew.....the list is too long.  I plan to try a bunch of them at the Kzoo expo.  When I finally decide I'll be placing the order for my dream bow.  I do know it will be a take down, not glossy, smooth, forgiving and quiet.

Mine would be a 1980's custom bighorn one piece, #55 and 60''. Built in the haydays when Fred was in charge.

I've traded for and purchased over 125 custom bows over the past few years looking for that "Dream Bow"... I Love my Silvertip, Tall Times and several Morrison's.

However, when I got this Bow in my hands, my search was over...

I had finally found "It", at least "for me".  She's a Charcoal risered 56" 55# Kwyk Styk with statiic tips by Jack Kempf.. :readit:    :pray:

Well, I did it!  This thread got me dreaming again.  Back on page 4 I wrote that my current dream bow is a light weight Shrew classic hunter for stumping and just shooting all day.  I wanted a light bow, also, for letting friends use so they might get interested in archery.  So I did it! I am on the list for my new Shrew.

On an earlier post I said all bows mentioned here were my dream bow. Now I must  'fess up.'

I am waiting on a Liberty Longbow by sponsor, Allen Boice.

 Funny thing is, it doesn't matter how short the lead time is, it is ALWAYS too long!
