Kota Kill Um, smoothest bow I have shot.

[OhioRiverTradMan]

I like my Kohannah Kurve.

For the money I'd buy a '59 Bear Kodiak.

St Charles Thunderbird gets my vote.I own 2 of them.

I have heard that Black Widow makes a great 50's style recurve. The only reason it is not on the list is I am not a big fan of laminate risers. I want one nice chunk of wood instead of a bunch of little ones glued together. It is just a personal aesthetics thing. Right now I am leaning towards a ebony riser with bocote or zebra wood veneers and bamboo cores.

Thanks for all the advice, I appreciate it.

Call the Widow Maker's and you can have anything you want. My suggestion would be a McCullough Fiftyniner, which is a replica of the Bear 1959 Kodiak, but it might be two plus years before you get one. Can't go wrong with a Widow and they will make anything you want.

The 59r, the only problem is just try to get one.

[HATCHCHASER]

I had a mojostick that was one of the fastest, quietest bows I have ever shot.  You can't go wrong with a Kohannah either.

Nothing whatsoever wrong with any of the choices; they're all great bows. But my vote goes to The Breed.

[Dave Pagel]

I have a 58 inch, 53# Breed that I draw to 29.  Quick and as quiet as my Pronghorn longbows.
