Base model 60 " RH Schafer Silvertip with Lamboo limb cores built for Fast Flight string with checkered grip. If I could talk Dave into foam cores, I would add that as well   ;)   56 lbs at 28".

64-inch, 50# A&H ACS 3-piece.

Or maybe a 50# Liberty Chief Elite

Or a 60-inch Bear Custom Kodiak

Or a 64-inch Robertson longbow

Or a 66-inch Hill

Or...........   :dunno:

Mine would be one of the same 2 that are on my to own list now, either a RER Vortec II, 60" 52#@28 or a Hoots 56" 52#@28 longbow. Shot both of these last year at Kazoo along with just about every other bow I could get my hands on there. These 2 were above everything else I shot for me!!!!
May your arrow always fly true and your hunt be an adventure.


Shoot Straight,

I think I would have to search for one of the eight remaining Rose Oak Companions.

Although I hate the long wait, I'd have to order another 66" Blacktail recurve, 40# @ 30".

The only problem, deciding between a take down or a one piece.
Blacktail TD Recurve: 66", 42# @ 30". Arrow: 32", 2212. PW: 75 Grains. AW: 421 Grains. GPP: 10.02
Blacktail TD Recurve: 66", 37# @ 30". Arrow: 32", 2212. PW: 75 Grains. AW: 421 Grains. GPP: 11.37
