Thanks for reminding me. RER are smooth indeed. Have one on order. Kevin has a new model so I'll have to decide if its going to be an XR or the new Vital.

Any good static recurve will have an extremely smooth draw.

What one person calls smooth, another may not and that is why Kirk's explanation is so very appropriate to this discussion.  Smoothness is like color, it is very subjective.

I remember making a bow out of a willow branch and some mason cord. I'm sure it was the smoothest drawing bow I ever shot   :biglaugh:

Nice explanation Kirk....

Would contemplate that the ride could be quite different shooting the same particulal bow design yet one individual draws 55@29 vs another who draws a 55@25.

I've owned 26 Takedown recurves over the last 17 years in my search for the perfect bow, for me. You name it, I've probably owned it, or my Brother-in-law(limbhanger)has.
 
3 of which were Timberhawks. 1-58" and 2-60" bows
They are the "smoothest" bows I've ever shot.
I do not own one currently.
I shoot Fox High Sierras
