I got my self a new T/D Longbow this last winter. Have been hunting with a recurve. Drew a hotrod permit for elk this season. Would very much like to take an elk with this bow, but have some reservations. My recurve is a 64# Schafer, shoots flat and hard to 30 yards. The longbow is 64# as well, shoots really nice with good speed, but not like the recurve. Most of my elk hunting has been from a treestand at close yardage and wouldn't be a issue with the longbow, but the area I have my permit will be primarily be done on the ground, not to savy on the ground. Those of you who have killed elk with the longbow, would like some input. Thanks
