I used my copper-head osage bow this past weekend, and she got the job done just fine. My backup is an osage selfbow in the mid 50# range, my backup for that backup is a osage selfbow in the mid 50# range, my backup for that backup is a osage selfbow in the mid 50# range.  I'm kind of short of backup bows at the moment...I'm sure Pappy would let me barrow one of his if the need arises. ;D

Never used a wheel bow and I haven't used a glass bow in about 20 years.

I shoot a hickory/bamboo rudderbow I made some time ago.
Then I have maybe 60 other bows, but my backup bows are from the 1970s like a red wing hunter #51@28" and a 47 Bear from the 1960s both are killer bows.
