I have a Fox LB that I like a lot, I also looked at the Wallace bows but I think the Fox was just a nicer bow and very well built bow, Ron dose a great job.  
Mine is 60", 55 @ my 28" draw and it shoot a fast arrow for a mild R/D bow. It has boo back and face limbs with cokabola and pudunk handle and pudunk as a limb core which give it a nice look.

Fox is a D bow, unless you go with the Triple Crown or the Royal Crown, which might be the most accurate one-peice longbows on the market. Ron's craftsmanship is second to none. Great guy, too.

Actually, I should say they all have the D profile when strung. He made sure they would even though the Royal and Triple have way more R/D than the original LB. He wanted to make sure they would still be eligable in the longbow class as many shoots do not allow radicle R/D hybrids in LB class. Ron has alot of top shooters using his bows, the Royal and Triple were built with them in mind.

Can't speak for the wallace...just got a fox royal crown with the recurve grip.  Very forgiving of my form errors, shoots where it is pointed, smooth drawing, all around very nice bow.
