50's style recurve itch

[Pokerdaddy]

I've had the same itch lately, must be going around.  I love my mild R/D longbows, but I've been wanting to pick up a couple '50s curves as well.

Toelke or Kota, anyone pull a bow out of Kohannah in the last year?

[Jorge]

Mahaska recurves, affordable, pretty, shot well and whisper quiet

Best from Spain

I've shot quite a few of them over the years ,the best ,in my opinion is the Saxon Selkirk,remarkable workmanship and unreal performance.My only problem now is its a bit heavy for me at 59#.

[Bladepeek]

Of course there's always the used bow route. I picked up a nice '56 Kodiak dual shelf from a fellow Trad Ganger.

It's is a real joy to shoot. Plus, I can shoot half a dozen right handed and then do it again left handed. Mr F Bear seems to have had a pretty good idea of what works.

Herb Meland from Pronghorn Custom Bows is building them again. He is working on one for me right now, I can't wait!! Love the looks of the 50"s style!

I've got an EB Holcomb 59er that shoots great and you can't beat its beauty. If not him then a McCullough 59er.

Another vote from me as well!

Whippenstick Inferno recurve for me!

I just traded for a Whisperstik for my son. I've never handled one but heard good things about them....KY

My wife had a Kota Kill-um  and she loves it and I wish it was mine,I shoot it one in a while when she isn't home ....

Toelke Chinook again, McCollough 59er, Great Northern Super Ghost all are at the top of my list.  The Chinook and the 59er draw pretty much the same.  The 59er has a different grip style but otherwise they are  pretty similar.
