50's style recurve itch

[moleman]

Im a die hard Hill style fan but as of late ive been getting the itch for a recurve.
Call me fussy, but the only ones that really peak my interest, are the 50's styles.
Other than Great Northern, who's building this style?

[Hopewell Tom]

Tolke Chinook looks pretty good. Don't have one, but Tolkes have a great rep. They're a Sponsor - Montana Bows.

Might look into a Kohannah Curve or RER Retro...    I love longbows for hunting, still have a place in my heart for recurves......

Wild Horse Creek Bows makes a 54" and a 60" in a 50's style recurve.  Great bows!

[TSHOOTER]

Mike @ Maddog Archery builds a 50's style recurve.  Sponser and a great guy to work with too!

There is a nice Holm Made River Runner for sale in the classifieds.  I have one with a Cocobolo/Osage riser and curly Anigre veneers.  True work of art and really zips an arrow!

The River Runner is a fantastic bow, I also just got a Kota Killum recurve that's darn nice! The G.N. Ghost is a nice one also. I love a longbow also but those 50's style curves just call to my roots!

I've about had them all.  Toelke Chinook, McCullough 59er, and if you can find one a Robertson Peregrine are the pick of the litter in my eyes.

Lot of good suggestions, one more. Bear is reintroducing the 59 Kodiak in 60"amo. It must have been a good idea because they aren't keeping up with the orders! Good for them.

[moleman]

With all these great suggestions, this itch is gonna be hard to scratch.

Check out the Java Man Duo Flex....one of my new favorites.

[NIGEL01]

Hate those dang itchs!  They get worse this time of year!!!

[bartcanoe]

I own both the Mad Dog recurve and the Holm-Made River Runner.  Both of them are great bows, and you can't go wrong with either one.

I had a Fox Breed that I would still own had it been made for a little shorter draw. I have a Reynolds Ramhorn that is a very sweet little bow if you can find one used. I don't think they are made anymore.

[Jim Wright]

You will be hard-pressed to find a better one than the Toelke Chinook. Exceptionally quick, well mannered and like all Toelkes QUIET!

[Panzer]

I have always wanted to shoot a Kota "Kill-um."

[Lippe]

I don't know that it's a true 50's recurve, but Robert Lutkenhaus makes a really nice recurve. Calls it the Bearcat. predatorlongbows.com

Kohanna Kurve

I had a Super Ghost and I would take the Kurve any day.

Another vote for the Toelke Chinook. Not a sound and dead in the hand.
