I owned one of crooked stics 62" RD longbows and it was smooth as any I've had.

Without a doubt, 21st Century Lonestar, 70" 45@28. That sucker was 2.5# per inch forever and ever and ever. Butter.

Next up would be Centaur. Stewart also. There are so many 'smooth' bows out there.

The 21st hands down is the one that sticks with me as the smoothest ever. I don't have one as my go to for various other reasons.

I thought about it and really this thread will end up 100% subjective without some draw force curves or at least some # / inch testimonies. LOL

Very true but op said subjective is ok. Let the post season chat begin.

Hard to beat a Toelke Whip

NBK · « **Reply #29 on:** December 29, 2013, 12:59:00 AM »

Three piece: Jim jones firefly. 64"
One piece: toelke whip. 62"
Extreme r/d: dwyer endeavor. 58"

All drawn to 28".
I define smoothness as having a lot of bottom, in that it feels like it can be drawn further without significant stack.

Treadway "Black Swamp" smoothest drawing, no handshock, and out of a 56" bow. The perfect hunting bow.

I had a 66" Toelke whip and let me tell you, there ain't no bow smoother than a 66" Toelke whip. Smooth with low string angle.

Caribow Peregrine, 62 inches

Leon Stewart Slammer and Treadway Black Forest are both very smooth to draw.

St joe river longbow!had a 58" 48@28 and now own a 60" and 49@28. Both super smooth!

I was a dealer for Roy Hall's bows and even though my Kempf is smooth at 58", those Hall bows were the smoothest bows I have seen.

Count me in with the Toelke guys. Specs in my signature.

I think a pattern has emerged...there are lots of great choices for smooth drawing r/d longbows

Yep, and to little $ to play.
