Yeah, I’ll hang some elk antlers off of it.
But then again, it ain’t too hard to switch from those above to these:
and the difference in smoothness and speed are hard to deny.
Get Col. Mike on your team and you guys could be “Los Tres Lobos.” 8)
And this is one of my favorite reviews:

I’m not sure I could limit myself to just one bow (unless I truly had to), but I do find that over time I’ve gravitating to one type of bow, and one type of grip, in various poundages:
I like that backstop, Doc!
What’s the backstop material – stall mat?
Grumpy – I wish I could say that I’d been planning it a long time, but it was honestly just the product of several cups of strong coffee yesterday mornin. 😉
Honestly, a static recurve with a low grip like the Great Northern “Ghost” could still trip my trigger…
But longbows are just so darn light and stable for me…
Yeah Steve, I suppose its possible that I’ll switch back at some point, even though it’s hard to imagine. A lot of it comes down to grip style for me – the vast majority of recurve grips just feel ‘weird’ to me after shooting a longbow for some time. Though I do still like some of the more classic, low-wrist grips on some of the 50’s-style recurves (like Toelke’s “Super Static”). But heck, if that happens 5 years from now, then I get to start looking around for a bow again!
