RE: Pick top 5 long bows $$ no object
 

Really depends on what I'm doing and what mood I'm in !

In no particular order;


There's Emma, a 64" Crusader


Debbra, 64" Black Thunder


Suzie, 58" Saxon Hawk


Lola, 60" Black Thunder


Sally, 66" 21st. Century


Liza,48" Selfbow that Larry Hinten built.


These are bows that I would buy all over again ! I have shot many, many others. Money was no object !

Have only shot 2 longbows in my entire life and own the second one.

ChekMate Crusader - 64" 56#@28"
Arkansas Stick - 68" 65#@28"

The Arkansas Stick was made by Terry Hughes in Gurdon, AR. He no longer makes them, sold out. Now Navajo bows. I'd like to shoot one sometime to see how they compare.
