This year and last year a Shakespeare Necedah 58" at 46# that I draw to 29-1/2" (so I'm getting 48 or 49#). I use 30-3/4" BOP Douglas Fir shafts, 11/32" tapered the last 12" to 5/16" spined 60-65#, three 5" turkey feathers and a Mercury or Bohning Classic nock worked to be just snug.
I'm using a three blade Mowoc Dot 125 gr head but also use 130 gr STOS or 125 gr Magnus II heads.
But I also like a 52# 62" Browning Explorer, a 58" 47# Red Wing Hunter, a 60" 55# Martin Dream Catcher, and many others. Only variable is some of those bows prefer a 65-70# spine.
