Now that I think about it, I currently own three Mentors - two are 64", one is 66", all one-piece recurves. Really the best recurves I've owned....

I really like my Bear takedown. As said above, a B handle and #3 limbs make a 64 inch recurve. I actually have 3 set up like this, as well as one with an A handle and #3 limbs which makes a 60 inch bow. Hard to beat the versatility of the Bear TD.

I have a Wes Wallace 3 piece in grey actionwood with 2 sets of red elm limbs dyed grey. One set 43 lbs @ 29" and the other set is 50 lbs @ 29". Great shooting recurve.
I also have an original Brackenbury Drifter 66" w/ 3 sets of limbs. Should find a new home for the Brackenbury as the limbs are too heavy for me.

My first foray into traditional archery was with a 64" Assenheimer. Belong to a buddy who owns an archery proshop. Loved that bow! Few years later I asked him what happened to that Assenheimer. Says he went bow fishing with it. Left it on the bow of the boat. Turned back to it and it was gone! Ahhhgg!

One more plug - I have a Dryad "Orion" that I just got in October. It has the 19" riser and 'long' limbs (ACS, static recurve), making it a 64" bow. Now, it takes a 62" string, so it's a long 64" (really, the strung length is nearly the same length as my 66" Wes Wallace), but Dryad indicates it's a 64" bow so I'll run with that.....
My Orion is 42.5 lb at 28" and it gains 3.5 lb at my 30" draw length, making for a 46 lb bow at my draw length. However, it launches a 515gr arrow at 181 fps, and a 435gr arrow at 191 fps. This bow is a rocket. I kind of expected their marketing hype to be mostly BS, but my LabRadar does not lie, this is a very fast bow and does exactly what Dryad said it would.

Wes Wallace makes a great bow that is a very good value.
Blacktail makes a nice bow, but now very expensive. Glad I bought mine long ago.
Caribow makes a nice bow.

Got to agree on Blacktails getting expensive, but most of the really good bows are going the same way. My 66" Elite VL has become my go to bow, and the Blacktail quality and service are second to none.
