I have 2 Legend Longbows made by Jim Johnson that I shoot a lot and a Crusader that I shoot a lot also. I shoot each one nearly every night in my basement out to 20 yards. I like them all.

My main bow is a 1964 model Shakespeare Kaibab 55#.
I also have an old Darton Ranger 44# that I bought to work on my form when I realized the 55# was a little too much for a beginner. Getting the forms ready to make my first recurve soon.

I HUNT AND MOSTLY SHOOT WITH MY BLACK WIDOW SAII. 59# @29"
I HAVE A FEW OTHER BW'S AND WILL LEAVE 2 AT WORK AND THE REST HOME SO I DON'T HAVE TO ALLOW THE AIRLINES OPPORTUNITIES TO TRASH THEM. ONE OF THE BW'S IS AN OLD TARGET BOW AT 39#. I HAVE NOT SHOOT IT YET BUT WHEN I MAKE UP ARROWS I'M GOING TO START SHOOT PAPER WITH IT. ALSO I HAVE 2 BEAR T/D RISERS AND 3 SETS OF LIMBS.

Chek-Mate Crusader, 62", 51#@28", one pice longbow.

I've figured out Chad's Rule (for) Long Bows. They must shoot quiet and sweet. The Crusader fills the bill in spades!!

RE: What Bow(s) does everyone shoot?
 

My journey on the "primitive" side started with a PSE Cheyenne. No unhappy memories but this bow moved out the day the CM Falcon Deluxe, 57#@28", arrived. Then I had to try the CM longbow. My first was a 66" T/D Crusader, 56@28. Next was a 62" 'Sader (recommended by Chad), yew & cocobolo, 54@27. I still have all three of these; the Falcon has been "dormant for a few months while the 'custom' 'Sader has accounted for my first 2 primitive kills - whitetail doe, mulie buck.
Arrows are homemade from Chundoo shafts.
