I have been having some good luck with my cheap longbows , look up Galaxy Ember or the BlackRidge. They are well made and shoot great , for $200 tyd they are hard to beat in my book...

,,,Sam,,,

I completely agree with Sam.  I have been very impressed with my Galaxy Ember and I have a bunch of customs on the rack.  Hard to beat.

I’m new to traditional archery so really don’t have any point of comparison, but I too have been very happy with my Galaxy Ember. Started out with some light limbs to work on form, etc. with the plan to upgrade to something else pretty soon. But after shooting it for a while and hearing all the positive comments from people who do know what they are talking about, I decided to upgrade my limbs and stick with the Ember for the foreseeable future. For the $200 price tag and $89 limb swaps, it seems hard to beat.

15 years with the same bow.. that is not a stretch for longevity unless you just want something different like lower draw weight..or whatever. Divide a $1000 dollar bow by 15+ years, and it ends up being pretty cheap.

I have lots of used bows available from $100-$1000 to pick from and a bunch of new Bear Black beauties at half price. There's a deal to be had if you look.
