How's it going folks?
I have been buying into a few older recurves lately, and I am wondering if anyone here has a collection?
What's the best models out there in your opinions?
What I currently own:
Bear Grizzly 58" 72#
Bear Cub 62" 35#
Ben Pearson Cougar 64" ??#
American Archery Cheetah LH 64" 46#

I don't know why I bought the LH Cheetah, but it looked cool, and it is a BOW...which I just cant seem to get enough of.

I just bought the Ben Pearson, and I love the balance..I have to get a string on it, but I am hoping it proves to be a shooter.

I usually hunt with my Grizzly, and usually shoot it the most, but I think late summer I am going to warm up with the Cub a bit, just to get my old shoulder in shape.

Well, anyways, just rambling. What do you guys and gals have in your collections? Next for me is a traditional bow...

NICE! I am going to get up some pics of the collection later on..
I bet the take down is cool! I would like to see the Tigercat, I bet thats a good one.

Do you use Cedar or Aluminum arrows? I have Aluminum now, but I need to find some good shafts to set up. I am thinking I will make my own this time around.
Anyone have a good supplier of Cedar arrows? Unfinished or Finished!!
