85% hybrid,15% recurve. Hunting- the Vortex goes- although a '64 grizzly will get some woods time this fall as well.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

I have both a longbow and a recurve but my favorite boasts the best of both worlds a 3 piece radical r/d that combines all the best of both designs but does it really matter? shoot what you love and stay traditional.
Walk tall as the trees,live strong as the mountains,be gentle as the spring winds, keep the warmth of the summer sun in your heart and the Great Spirit will always be with you.

Longbow right now. I beleive both longbows and recurves have there benefits. Longbow seems more forgiving and quiet. Recurve seems to create more energy for casting heavy arrows. I've been shooting recurves and longbows for 30 years. To each their own personal preference. I like both and see the benefits and shortcomings of both.

Ok, the longbow guys pulled ahead in the stretch! But not by much.
