God forbid!  Just one bow?  You mean hunt only one species of animal or shoot only one range of target?  That's like choosing only one wine that would go with all meals.

I suppose if our deranged Governor rushed through another illegal law that limited me to one bow I would have to take my Damon Howatt Dream Catcher.  Though I would cry real tears to have to part with my Browning Explorer, which is less draw weight and weighs a pound more but I shoot it better.

Though, I shoot my Wing Presentation-II even better still . . . and my Red Wing Hunters are shorter and handier . . .

NO, I WON'T DO IT.  I NEED MORE THAN ONE!      :scared:

You can't have just one to go bow. Bows are like fishing rods difrent bows for difrent situations.
You can hop but you can't hide.
If it was not for rabbits I would never get a buck.

Right now my "go to" bow would be a '69 45# Bear Super Kodiak.  This choice sometimes changes weekly, but for now I don't know how you could improve on this bow!

I only have three to chose from but it would be my 66# (72# @ my draw) Wes Wallace Stealth.  Being the lightest bow I have it is easier to shoot for long periods of time without tiring and it still has enough oomph to take anything in North America.  That being said as soon as I get my other Stealth back (81#) I will be shooting it more than the others unless I have physical problems that affect my drawing abilities.

Bows have come and gone , but I keep going back to my Hummingbird Alpha male. Had a new 3 pc Hummingbird come in last Spring that I really liked shooting wise, but I ordered it with a gloss.
Felt like I was hauling out a grand piano to shoot,or like driving a shiny black Mercede's to the feed store, so just left it on the rack. Finaly sent it back to get it knocked down to a satin and hope to have it back this week.
Have a Whippenstick LB that I'm playing with that I really like also, almost sold it a while back, glad I didnt.
