just bought my first longbow, picked it up six days ago and already in love with it. Had been shooting recurves since 1962. Always wanted one, figured I better not wait any longer. Something about them I just cant explain. I would suggest shooting as many as you can before buying. Mine is a Crow Creek Dalton 64" 48 lbs. at 29" fast, smooth and accurate

I shoot a long bow better then recurved bows, that is why I stayed with long bows... Good Luck with the long stick.

I got back into trad archery last year. A buddy brought me two recurves and two longbows to try. Once I shot the longbows that was it, didn't even want to shoot the recurves anymore. I'm hooked.

I too shoot a longbow. PSE Sequoia 50# at 28". The bow shoots better than I do. But I'm getting better every day. At times I feel when the shot is going to be good, And that feels great!
