Hey all,

I'd like to hear what some of your favorite 3 piece Takedown longbows are and why.  Which ones have you tried that you really liked?  If you don't have one yet, which one(s) would you really like to have or are thinking about buying?

Of course if you have PICS of 3 piece TD Longbows, by all means POST 'EM!!  Everyone always loves seeing pics of great looking bows....

Here is the only 3 piece TD longbow that I've owned. I don't need to look any further for my "perfect" bow!

Fast, quiet, and a tack driver. What more can you ask for.

Mine is 64", 49@27". I shoot this bow better than any other trad bow that I've owned (and I've owned a bunch of the big names).

If I didn't have another recurve ordered before I bought this ACS, my search for the perfect bow would be over!!

These are 50@28 and 62"

Both are Osage, the darker one is about a year older.

This is the one I'm shooting now,RER LX. This bow is fast, smooth and I shoot it better than anything I own or have owned. Kevin makes one fine bow.

My Dryad Orion TD Longbow by Wingnut (a sponser here)... Needless to say I am pleased with the bow. Beautiful, whisper quiet and performs better than I could have hoped.. I've only owned two bows in the past 20 years that perform so well that I consistantly shoot high with. My Morrison recurve and now this Dyrad. Honestly I could not be more pleased with this bow. It has become my "go to" bow for everyday use.

Morrison Shawnee, for me, has it all.  Smooth, quiet, good performance, and easy on the eyes...

Also like the ACS-CX both from O.L. and from A&H...

 

Masur Birch, and Bocote, with carbon/foam limbs and copperheads.  62", 60# @ 29".

 

Macassar Ebony and Zebrawood with carbon/foam limbs and copperheads.  62", 64# @ 29".

 

Alcoa Ebony (Aluminum), 64", 70# @ 29".

 

Also have another Shawnee, Cocobolo Riser with a set of Dakota limbs 62", 58# @ 29" and a set of Arapaho limbs, 56", 61# @ 29" both have eastern diamondbacks and are bamboo cored.

There are a lot of nice bows out there, but these are the ones that work for me...

My favorite takedown is my FireFly. 58" 57#@28 Juniper and Macassar Ebony - it's super quiet, holds great, and feels good during and after the shot.  Makes me want another one for sure.

Don't mind the horrible group - it was an off day and I was trying to find a new carbon for it, which I have now for sure.  ;)

Support the sport!

Heres one of the best shooting TD longbows ever made IMHO.<><
