A Custom Bighorn TD that I won in a raffle back in the mid 80's.  It was my first custom bow and the bow that made me decide to go Trad for good.  Sold it around 1990 to fund another bow that I just "had to have".  Tracked it down last summer and bought it back.  Not leaving again.

A 44#,'68 Super Kodiak. Shot my first deer with that bow in 1968. A few years later I thought it would be a good idea to trade it in on a 55# Super Diablo. Wish I could re-think that one !

I have 2 that I would love to get back.

#1 is a Massie Longhorn from Tippit in Bocote and Osage 64" and 50# @ 28"

#2 is a Thunderhorn 3 piece in all Bocote I sold to Chromebuck a year or so ago.

I have two....my first trad bow was a Don Dow r/d bow that I wish I still had.

I also had a Bob Lee hunter that I really liked that I thought I was 'upgrading' to a Hoyt Buffalo.

I like the buffalo enough, but the Bob Lee was much lighter.

A custom 1980's Bighorn TD. It was my first custom bow and I think of it often.

Only one I csn think of is a mint 65 Kodiak. Only because of what it is. Oh and a mint 60 Kodiak Mag. Only because of what it is.
As a bow to be a go to shooter. I am building that one in my head right now. So much fun.

God bless you all, Steve

I haven't been rid of any I've sold or traded long enough to want them back badly enough to buy them again.  

There a couple that I miss:
1. Fox High Sierra - the first recurve I bought since the early 1970's and the first one I traded or sold away (I can't remember the deal exactly).
2. Snakebit. I imagine this will forever be the most beautiful bow I've owned.

The only bow that I really regret getting rid of and really want back. Is a Northwind Gem reverse handle longbow. This was my first short (60"ntn)bow. It was Osage under clear glass with a cocobolo riser. 51lbs @ 27". That bow was lightest bow I ever owned. I traded it on here for a snakey osage self bow about 6 years ago.
Did I say "I really want it back!"
