Primal Tech!! The grip fits my hand perfectly, dead quiet when shot, beautiful to look at. I like it so much I'm on the list for another one with some different wood to look at!!

Nope, and I sorta hope I never really do. Would take some of the fun out of it don't you think.

Currently my "the bow" is one of two Hummingbird 3 pc lb's-42@28, 46#@28-both drawn to 29.5" One is 62" and the other is 64" and I believe they are here to stay.

Yep. I have 2 styles that I like. My St Joe classic longbow double carbon Takedown is thee one. It's a good weight, smooth, point and shoot. I think as I have it, it's the pinnacle of what that bow can be offered in. BW Ebony riser...excellent heft and very stable. It's my primary shooter.

I had a Kalamazoo Bow Works Manistee built for me this last year. I ordered 45lb/64"...nice, very slim, slight R/D longbow. What I got was a 50lb/62" longbow. He accidentally cut it short

I decided to keep it. Happy little accident is what I call it. Bow draws like 40lbs and casts like a 60lb. It's as bare as can be...solid 19" Black Walnut riser with what I believe are elm lam limbs under green glass...accented with a fine dual color Great northern in matching brown and Green leather. Insanely quiet. It's the quietest bow I've ever owned, and I've owned several dozen in my 10year trad journey, and it's also the lightest...with quiver full of 612grain arrows, total weight is less than 2lbs.

These two bows fit their purpose that I requested them for...I haven't felt a twinge or desire to buy or order another.

Several years ago I thought I had found the perfect bow in a Northern Mist Whisper a reverse handle longbow. Then Steve Turay talked me into trying the Shelton string follow longbow. I was torn between the two. Ever happened to you? Then in a rare moment of clarity while talking to Steve about a new bow I asked again about the potential of both together, a reverse handle string follow longbow. Steve had not yet tried that, but others had asked about it. I told him if he built it I would buy it no matter how it turned out. He built it and it worked so that bow became the Ramer. Since I commissioned the first one I have to stick with the Ramer as my perfect bow. No other bow has given me a reason to change.
