I have always shot longbows, but for the last year or so I have been interested in adding a recurve to my collection. I did'nt want to deviate too far and have primarily been looking at 50's style recurves with more of a longbow style riser. So I called Mark Horne this morning and have one of his Mountain Bows on the way. 62" 46# @ 28", Cocobola riser w/Birdseye maple overlays and bamboo core limbs. Can't wait till it gets here. I think I will really enjoy the lighter draw weight.
