I have a Firefly and just ordered a K-2 from Hill Country. Both good bows!

I love my Leon Stewart three-piece Slammer.

As for the A&H ACS longbows, I prefer the one-piece because it has a lower grip than the three-piece.

many good ones out there...IF you are interested in a Lynx i might be willing to sell mine.  Beautiful bow and shoots incredible, just purchased too many bows and need to think about getting rid of one or two.  PM me if interested (bow is like new)

I just got a Stalker Coyote and it shoots fast and hard. Love it! Scott Mitchell's TimberHawk 2-Piece longbow is awesome. I shot one for years.

Both of your choices have little or no perceived hand shock.  You will be happy with either.  I'm a Toelke fanatic though

I like ACS 3-piece TDs.  Small risers, but still sufficient mass.  Very fast and stable.

I think it would be hard to beat a Hummingbird. In my opinion Ben's three piece longbow is the best bow that he builds. Thats what I would be shooting if I was still shooting rd bows. God bless, Scott.

Why not order an RER LXR and have the best of both worlds, a set of longbow limbs and a set of static tip recurve limbs...mine is my go-to bow
I set out a while ago to reduce my herd of 40 bows...And I am finally down to 42

I love the 3pc bows by Mark Horne. I have three of his and five sets of limbs that cover all bases.You can also get recurve and/or longbow limbs if you wish. They are great shooters and can be as simple or as fancy as you wish.

My favorite 3 piece longbows are Morrison Shawnee and ILF's. Smooth and fast.

Neil Jacobsen's Bears Paw Carbon Hunter T/D longbow is THE top shelf product.  Neil has mastered carbon technology and is just a fine guy.  He has bowhunting trophies from every mountain-top in North America and can read your mind when consulting with you.  If you want a great experience, top to bottom, call Neil. If you are looking for just another bow, someone else will suffice

Dave, after you shoot the Cari Bow for a while, I would like to know how you like it.

One bow. One arrow. My ideal.
