Half a dozen Hill's, two JD Berry's, two Mohawks, a couple of Northern Mists, and a couple of Whippensticks.. They're all great bows..

Have one Morrison recurve left - I'm a longbow guy for the last several years.. Don't think I'll ever go back.

At this time 32 but always looking for more. Most are vintage bears that only get shot once a year. At this time in rotation are a bighorn custom recurve and a rer Xl longbow.

A few years back I figured out everything I liked and disliked in a bow and have sold all that don't posses those qualities.

I have 4 hanging in the bow room. My goal each year is to take a deer with each of them.

down to six custom bows ( five of Big Jims and a nice 3pc I got in a bow swap built by Mike Tenley/Brushwolf ) Fourteen selfbows, mine and ones built for me in swaps with another 8 selfbows in process and a new Thunderchild coming from Jim....


I think I like bows   :bigsmyl:

Five total in the household... one is my wife's, one is my first bow (old recurve with a twisted limb) that I keep as my only "backup", another old Pearson we never shoot, given to us,
my daughter's Saxon from her childhood, long outgrown, soon to be in the classifieds. Only one bow which is mine and I actually shoot - a Selway Lil Mag.

1. a little 30# all fiberglass bow that was my first from about 1967
2. a Pearson recurve similar to my first that I bought on an auction site for nostalgia's sake
3. a bow from the bow swap
4-? all wood bows that I have made maybe 3 or so
Waiting for the next addition either made by me or from the current swap here on TG

Maddog Mountaineer 57# and Prairie Predator 52# Wow!, Samick Sage 35 - 60#,  I'm learning.
