Brack Peerless Tommy!  :thumbsup:

I already have one and if my house were burning it's the very first thing I would grab. (after the wife and boys of course. ... well at least the boys).  :biglaugh:  

About a 2 year wait though...

The last three all have Jim Brackenbury's influence...also those will make a longer one piece recurve....my favorite.

60-62" Blacktail.  I bought a 53# 60" inch VL . I still shoot it better than any other.  I am currently working hard on my shooting with my Pronghorn because it is around 60# at my draw and I like it a lot but , if had to pick one for a money shot right now it would be the Blacktail.

I like it so much I just had it refinished by  Blacktail, not cheap but worth every penny .

I have a 66" Wes Wallace Mentor coming next month. Norm's bows are really beautiful, but his wait time was 18 months when I ordered the Mentor, so I went with Wes.  :)  

In the meantime I picked up a used 66" Brackenbury Drifter TD - so if you asked me NOW,
I'd order the Blacktail - 66" one piece Elite VL.   :D  

I'd like to compare all 3 of them.   :archer:
Martin-Hunter & Bamboo Viper, Black Widow Camo PLX, Holm-made Osprey, Toelke-SS #5 & Super D, Brackenbury Drifter, Wes Wallace Mentor, Kimber Huntsman,  Rose Oak-Wildcat II, Ocelot, Ace & 2 Heritage TDs, Bear-'67½  SK & '59 Kodiak Special - all LH
