I agree Butch. Allen makes a very fine bow. The Contender would be my choice...it IS my choice.

I also like the look of a Maddog longbow, because its basically just like a Longhunter with a little more R/D

I shot "a lot" of these mild r/d bows. By far the best has been the Northern Mist Superior.

So, I wanted to throw in my Bamboo backed hickory longbow with a cocobolo handle by a fellow name Eric Todd. It has been a great bow, with well over 10,000 shots through it I would imagine. He's turned out to be quite the friend, and a superb craftsman/bowyer.
Tops Eric!

I like the Mohawks also. (a blast from the past) I thought the Howatt/Martin ML-18 Bushmaster was a good solid bow.
