WELL.....I am basically a recurve shooter because I never found a longbow that I could shoot well, until I recently acquired a Harrison HSS. It is by far the best shooting longbow for me, but I'll probably wind up hunting with a Schafer recurve....however, I NEVER say NEVER.
Lots of time between now and October.

Wannabe,

I don't think we are talking strictly one piece longbows.  I saw several Crow Creek longbows mentioned that I know to be 3-piece T/Ds.  And I believe there were several ACS longbows mentioned that are also very likely 3-piece T/Ds, especially if they were bought from A&H.

My go to one piece is my Crow Creek Dalton.  62" and 51 @ 28".  I'm in a toss up whether I like the Dalton or Blackfeather better.  I have both but I've been shooting the Dalton way more than the Blackfeather.  

The Dalton is very light.  I'm guessing less than 2 pounds and from what I understand some people prefer a heavier bow for stability.  Mine shoots smoothly with no handshock whatsoever.  

Just came in from shooting it a few minutes ago.  I made a backup string for it and had to test fire it.  I'll be using it for pigs this weekend.

Any of my 7 Shrews. Only because I just got back from hunting with it, my favorite today is a 60" Super Shrew Samurai 2 piece takedown, 68#@29 1/2". What a wonderful bow for heavy game! I know my new favorite is going to be the 56" Shrew Classic Hunter foam/carbon 2 piece takedown, 55#@29 1/2" that I will be getting later this summer.

Eric, I am surprised you did not choose a Shrew too.

Eric,

I saw you listed a Shrew earlier as your favorite. I guess you must have changed your mind when you got the Northern Mist Classic. Must be a very nice bow to beat out your Shrew.

Allan, its tough to decide at times. My 60" SS Deluxe is tuned and always ready to deliver that 200g Woodsman. But I do truely love shooting the Hill style LBs, and with this one it seems I can do no wrong. They both treat me very well, its usually the situation that dictates which one goes to the woods.

You been to Africa and back already?
