I like my hornes traditionals and my navajo both are super longbows and the hornes custumor service is excellent they will bend over backwards for you .

If I do settle on a longbow(that is, if I can shoot one), It will be either a liberty or a Hornes.  Recurves?  Gotta love the Rose Oak bows, although I havent made up my mind on that yet.  Yall are right though, its a sin to only have one bow.  Thats what happens when you are a few years into a new business with two rugrats and a wife at home.  Wouldnt trade it for any bow(or number of bowS) though.

Check out Cari-Bows. I shot one of his longbows at the Trad Expo East in K-Zoo and the was nothing I didn't like except I have my money set aside for something else and couldn't buy one. The thing I liked most was his longbows frip and how close the shelf was to the knuckle. I came close to busting the nocks on the arrows he loaned me to shoot it. I'll also pm you another bowyer's name you might consider.

Why not just go with a Bowyer in your home state such as a Wes Wallace or a Fox, who are probably two of the best nationwide. If I had that much money to spend, those are the two that I would focus on.JMO

BRACK you better get one soon before you start getting the jitters.Being bowless is not healthy.
