My main bow is a 60" Lost Creek, back up is a 56" Lost Creek. Both pull 48# at my draw. I have a 58" on the way from Chad, also 48#, for my back ups back up.

My main bow is a 21st Century, 51# @ 28", 62"long. My backup is a 45# @ 28" Martin Bushmaster, 64". I recently got a 50# @ 28", 66" Hill Cheetah that will probably replace the Bushmaster.

for years my main bow was a 60" 63# @29 Black Widow SA II, and my back up was a 60" 65@28 Bear TD Hunter.  My draw is 29".  This winter, I bought the new PCH 58" 57@29, and a used PSR '97 56" 58#@29 as my back up.

The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Right now my main bow is a Brackenbury Old Timer (like me) longbow 74@27" and my back-up is a Brackenbury Shadow 68# @ 27".

This week my main hunting bow will be my Fox Breed 58" and 48# @ 28" with POC arrows.  My back-up will my my longtime Massie Longhorn 62" and 48# @ 28" also with POC arrows.  I say "this week" because my bow selections are always subject to change on a daily basis.

It is a toss up right now. I built a recurve that I shoot really well. But the 55#@28" Blacktail recurve has always been my "go to" bow! But then the new Fox "Royal Crown" R/D is shooting good too.....decisions, decisions?!!!

Tree Killer

#1 is a 64" 60# Blacktail Elite

#2 is a 64" 62# Brackenbury Drifter

I shoot the same arrows out of both bows, but I shoot the Blacktail much better!

When I'm shooting recurves it is my 55lb palmer single carbon with my predator recurve as my backup bow. When shooting longbows it is my matlock predator x3 with a matlock predator X as my backup.

Main bow is a 52" ben pearson recurve. 50# at 28.. backup is a PSE Impala recurve, 60" 50# at 28
I'd rather hold a recurve than shoot a compound

BUCKY

Great stuff everybody!I see it's pretty close with some having identical backups and some having different bows.For those of you with different bows can you pick up your backup and shoot it as good as your main bow?
