I just purchased a 1970's era Bear Super Grizzly, got it for a steal, non hunter had it. It is good hands now! Excellent shape and fits me to a tee. I'll post pics as soon as I can....

My Pinnacle II seems to work good but I certainly won't mind having a Border Black Douglas with Hex 6 limbs or a Blacktail!

My '64 Kodiak is my favorite recurve.  Everything from the classic mojo to the grip to the great shooting qualities make it my "pry it from my cold dead fingers" recurve.   :archer2:

I too am mostly a longbow shooter. Recently, I picked up a one piece Bighorn from the Asbel era. I have truly enjoyed shooting this bow to the point that it will be at my side come October 1st.

"Which recurves bring the greatest joy?"
All of them,when I sold them and started shooting American semi longbows!  :D  

I sold all my recurves but one.A little 50" Browning Cobra 1. The grip fits like it was custom made for me and it's a pretty sweet little shooter.Don't know why,but I just can't put it up for sale.
