Honestly Steve I love your list we have similar tastes, I have the Dwyer, I have a centaur on order, I want a Saluki really bad, and I have always loved shrew and toelke bows.

I really wish I ordered the Saluki Scythian I optioned it out and it would have been over 1000 dollars which I really didn't want to spend.  Maybe next year I'll order one =).

Would be one of Howard Hill's personal bows, one that he took something exotic with, or one of Fred Bears Super Kodiaks that he hunted with. etc. etc. etc. You see the pattern. I would rather have a bow with history, not an expensive custom. I would just enjoy re-telling the stories the "bow" had to offer! Wouldn't that be a hoot!
