If you lost all your bows, what one bow would you buy?

[Gray Buffalo]

I'd go after the St. Joe river 2 pc take down 50 @ 28"

[oldbohntr]

I'd call Val Sorrentino in Heaven(hypothetical situation, right?)and ask him to make another '62 Kodiak replica like the one he did 20 years ago.  Maybe just a bit lighter than that one, but...in any case,I know it'd be the perfect recurve!

[amar911]

56" Shrew Classic Hunter 55#@29.5" with foam/carbon/uniweft/mystery limbs and BowBolt. Not heavy enough for the really big animals, but just about perfection for everything else! Of course, I would buy a dozen or more bows, not just one!

Lots of great bows out there!

[sou-pawbowhunter]

70" Hill 60@ 29", yew and cocobolo with a black elk wrap.

[JJB]

Reading through this thread really makes one appreciate how may good bowyers there are.  I would probably have to find another Robertson Peregrine.

[Roots]

Thunderhorn coup stick, 45# @ 28, 60".

[Covey]

Shouldnt be able to ask a question like that.  :D  
I wantin one of Big Jim's TC's awful bad!!

I believe...I'll have to get back with ya on this one.

[Crooked Stic]

That is easy  Crooked Stic Shortbow

[elk ninja]

Centaur OR a Thunderhorn 2 piece take down, 65#@26"

[doubleo]

I haven't shot enough of em to know for sure. That's the down fall of being a lefty.

[free2bow]

One I haven't shot before but have on order, a Silvertip recurve, 40 to 42 lbs. at 28, and 60 inches.  I want a comfortable weight to reduce wear and tear on the body. And Beth Windauer was very, very helpful answering my questions and providing me with pictures and information.

[owlbait]

The "one" bow hasn't been built yet for me! I'd be ashamed to tell all the other bowyers out there that they didn't make the cut today, because they might tomorrow!

[joe skipp]

Right now I would need 2 bows..one RH and one LH. No hesitation here...Jack Kempf Stealth T/D in RH and Mike Fedora H560 one piece in LH. Hopefully my new Fedora will arrive here in 2 weeks...

[Gator1]

Treadway Longbow 56".

[Sixby]

I've been giving this some thought. Including the bows I build this is not a decision I could make. There are so many really great bows and bowyers its just not a fair question to ever have to choose just one. I guess I would just have to take what materials I could find and make a bow somehow.
God bless you all, Steve

[tradshooter]

I'd be looking for another Saxon Longbow, preferably in the American Series and 50# to 60# at 28". I love the way those Saxons shoot and they were built to hunt! Lots of great Bowyers and bows out there.

[JamesKerr]

I am suprised to see that no one but me has posted anything about tomahawks.

[rjackson]

Easy, Jack Kempf Raven Recurve.

Hunt Hard,

Randy

A toss up between a Berry Apollo, a Stotler longbow, or a Robertson longbow, but then again I don't want to think about it.  My wife has pretty much said I won't be buying any more bows.  So if I had to, I bet I would change my mind a bunch of times.
