My custom Silvertips made for me by Dave. Still have them and will never part with them. Got a new one coming in a few months and it will never leave either.

Did sell a Brack Quest all zebrawood with a gaboon stripe I wish I still had, killed a lot of critters with that bow.

The best bow I have ever had is my Bama Bow Hunter.  It's my first takedown longbow and I love it.  It lives on my bow rack.

My Tall Tines Wenge and Bacote 62" with 56# and 50# limbs.  Cant imagine finding anything better.  I have several Tall Tines bows but always seem to pick this one up.

The one in my signature. I've shot the crap out of it for years and plan to continue to do so unless I find a two piece that shoots any better. After trying a couple hundred bows, I've yet to find one to replace my Sierra. There was one that I felt shot as good, but not better so it got sold because I couldn't give up my trust rig for no gains in shooting performance and feels

FOX BREED....  still here, sitting about 20 feet away.

Marriah Thermal. I want to shoot them all, and sold it so I could try something else.

If it's bows we still have, it would be an old grey Martin Mamba. Shot lots of 3D, and deer with it using fastflight strings it isn't rated for. I have retired it with honor.
If it's in your way, move it.

Not sure it was the best bow I've owned but I sure did like it.  It was a low end longbow, Viper Deluxe.  I donated it to the troops so they could have an archery range on their base.  As far as I know it's in Iraq still....

Great news!  I just found a longbow like the one I donated, used, and 5 lbs. heavier.  How cool is that!?  Can't wait to get my hands on it!
