I had a couple of them. Wish I had them back. Fine shooters, and easy to handle. Sure would like to have another in an X configuration and 58”.

I've shot them they are pretty bows. A little too much deflex in them for my taste.

My favorite recurve that BW makes very balanced and lighter and feeling better than the takedowns to me I think looks beter too

I have also had quite a few from 58 up to 62 inches.I like them quite a bit.The last one was an all Osage 58 incher.The only 58" I have had.It did shoot very well as Shawn suggested above.I have 60 incher coming next week that I am looking forward to.They are certainly a cool looking design.
The PA is also very nice looking.I like the reverse horn style riser on those.They are the same bow essentially as the PTF.Just different riser aesthetics.Same riser length etc.
So you have a choice thier between the 2 models if your looking at buying a new one.Used I would not be swayed one way or the other.It all comes down to what you like more visually.The PA might weigh a few ounces more.

The PTF one piece( I still have two of)
Just liked the sleeker look and feels better balanced in my hands with out the exra mass weight
the one thing I would advise is talk to Roger at BW for the correct bow length for your draw length- I shoot the 56" at my short draw and feels great- tried the longer lengths and did not feel as good to me with my short draw (felt like they lost some of the Zip ) and got a more spongy feel as they got longer

Had one and couldn't shut the noise down and went down the road. When visited the BW shop they had one in the showroom to try and it was everything I was looking for in the bow and they wouldn't sell it for some reason.
Could never figure out why the same make of bow would sound like a .22 and the other is whisper quiet, seen the same in several other bows by other bowyers.

That's strictly a Black Widow problem. :^)

have had 5 PTF's over many years
no noise problem for me
use 2 yarn string silencers and tuned arrows - tried 4 as someone recommended and noted no real difference so back to 2

I'd like to try one. But I think BW is missing a bow from the lineup. I'd like to see a PTF with a shorter riser. (I little off the bottom and a little shorter sight window). Or put the PTF shaped grip on the PSR. But maybe I don't know what I am talking about either. Maybe the PTF is more accurate that way IDK? I had two PCHs and they shot well. I just never could like the look. Tedd
