I am sure there are a lot of self bows out there to rival the glass bows!

I have many longbows. The longbow I keep going back to is a used 21st Century that I bought at a tag sale for $75.00.  The bow shoots where I look and just "fits".

Of the longbows that I have shot so far, I'm the most consistent with my Kanati. Can't seem to miss with it!

Depends on the shooter. What shoots good for 1 person may not for another.

From 5 feet my longbow hits the bulls eye everytime. Do I need to back up some?

In my opinion accuracy is in the hands of the shooter. I am just as accurate with my fox as I was with my roy hall and my a and h acs.  Once I am shooting arrows matched to the bow one bow is as accurate as the other!

Ain't the club but the clubee. Too many came to me for golf lessons with $1000 clubs & $5 swings. A satisfied mind builds confidence however. "Want to" will find a way.

It's the shooter and the tuning poundage and length...then just time to get used to it.

Now you will find ones that truely don't suit your hand, length - poundage whatever or something about it (that's why I am trying lots of different ones, but when you find the one...and I mean the one that is an extension of you...you will shoot it effortlessly and accurately...period

The best shooting longbow is the one you shoot best. It is different for everybody out there.

I had a saxon mogoose that shot pretty well.I bought a saxon american with exactly the same specs and it did not shoot as well for me.I thought that the bow was cheaper because of the materials used.Now I use a preditor recurve.I have 2 of them with the same specs.Same grade of bow.One of them is my favorite as I can shoot it better than the other.So maybe you should try several of the same make before drawing a conclusion on the brand.
