With so many great bows out there that have so many great qualities, tough choice.

Three bows that are not made anymore, yet in my opinion are great shooters...my 56" Groves Spitfire and 56" Original Stewart Multi-Cam T/D. One more that I regret selling to Danny Rowan, was Bow River Archery Summitt T/D.

Top 3..60" Kempf Stealth T/D, 60" one piece Fedora and 56" Kempf Kwyk Styk.
"Neal...is this heaven?" "No Piute but we are dam close". Top of the Mtn in Medicine Bow Nat Forest.

My top 5:

I really like both my Zipper SXT and Robertson Fatal Styk, but would love to give a Schafer or Blacktail a workout to see what all the fuss is about (other than that fact that they are lookers).

For me its the Stalker Static, thats the only recurve I own. Like mentioned above that's a pretty personal choice  :)

       Toelke Kestrel
       Toelke Curlew
       Toelke ...........
       All Other Recurves

I realize I may sound like a Toelke Addict , but I could not be happier with.my Bows or my Bowyer. Besides, it's all in the eyes of the beholder   :)  
     Tu Compadres, Sutty
I love the Chinook, really my favorite.  

1. Toelke Chinook
2. Great Northern Ghost (index grip)
3. Bear 59 kodiak
4. Zipper EXtreme
5. Caribou  (all of them)

I would be happy with either the Chinook or the GN Ghost if I could have only one bow.  They are a step ahead of the others in terms of design, smoothness, speed and quiet.

Danny Rowan

I have owned them all, trust me,LOL for me it is the Schafer Silvertip and Brackenbury Quest for recurves and Cari-bow Silver Fox and Slynx for longbows.
