Martin Vision R/D Longbow
66" 60#@28"

Too much bow for me, but it just feels right.  Martins are seriously underrated!

Which ever one I pick that day, Silvertip, Brack Quest, Cari-bow Slynx or Bear type I A. Shoot them all the same and same arrow out of any of them. I would never limit myself to just one bow.

Longbow - Brackenbury Old Timer, JD Berry Serpentine
Recurve - Bruin Woodsmaster

although I do have a new JD Bewrry Vixen coming soon that I am sure is going to see a lot of use

Hey Trap...let's think about at least having the potential to use 50 year old bows in 2014...of course I sold my 64 Kodiak but it was maybe a bit light anyway...I have lots of time to pick up another one...I am guessing you may have one or two kicking around

Never owned a 64 Kodiak Dave,  I ran out of $$$ at '62    :banghead:  

I do have a 64" 59 Kodiak at a hard hitting 55# though. Will that work?

I have my collection down to just "keepers" now,but out of all the bows,I go to my Timberline "BamYew" most often.
66" 66#@27"  I love the way it shoots and the grip fits me perfect.

Hmmm...a 55 year old bow at 55 pounds...sure sounds like some good mojo to me...I ran out of dollars about the time I started finding 64 inch 59's everywhere I looked...as you may know my draw length, on a good day, is right around 30 inches and the appeal of the 64 inchers is great...btw you gotta meet the guy I sold the '64 to...he used to operate as Alberta Traditional Bowhunts and lives in Edson which is where Silver Fox is based
