Fieldtesting my new Firefly and Black Widow

I have started this season with buying a new longbow and a recurve.
After much searching and wondering my decision was a Firefly longbow from Jim Jones with extra set of limbs and wow what a bowyer

I had a chance to buy a firefly in 2006 at our local state shoot and I let my uncle talk me out of it because the bows were unheard of
. I hadn't been into trad for very long and I didn't know any better. I did end up buying a very nice used Hummingbird from Sipsey River that year. Don't get me wrong I love the Hummingbird and John is a great guy to deal with but I'll never be able to get a new Firefly for that price again
. Having shot one I can say they are great bows.

Very nice. I cant speak for the fire fly but my PAS V is the smoothest bow i have ever drawn. My ASC/CX is a close second.

Congrats on the new bows.

I shoot both a Firefly LB and a BW 'curve. They are both the same wt. at 31" draw. I can shoot the same arrow set-up out of both. I know the eye can mislead and I do not have a chrono, but I think they shoot very similar speeds and it would not surprise me if the FF actually shoots faster.

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.
