Shootin a recurve cause I don't have a longbow yet.  As soon as I dump a Widow and drive to Kimsha,  it'll be a longbow.

[Ron+dog]

i like my recurves i like the style i love the power and the blend of old techology with new materials thats not to say i dont like longbows i just like recurves better

[Night Wing]

As soon as my pending sale for my hybrid longbow goes through, I'll only have my take down recurves left and that's what I'll be using. No more longbows for me. I don't shoot them as accurately as I do a recurve.

[azhunter]

I love them both about the same.

Presently I have four recurves with one other recurve on order, I have one longbow and another on order. All of my bows are takedown and my Blackfeather is a "convertible".....same riser with both recurve and longbow limbs. I have found that I shoot the recurves more consistantly than the longbows. I don't know why, but even with the same riser I shoot the recurve better. I'll check back in after I get the 20th Anniversary longbow that Ben Graham is building for me. It also seems to me that I shoot the heavier, "hand filling" risers more consistantly than I do the smaller grips. We are all different and when I find something that works for me.........I am reluctant to let it go.

Your mileage may vary..............

I have four recurves and a longbow.  I must say I am going to hunt with my longbow some this season!  BUT with that said if I want more of a "gaurantee" I will pick up my take down recurve, just because I am a way better shot with it.  It is just the difference between a pie plate group and a tennis ball group!  Either way, I can put meat on the ground!

[marsniper27]

Recurves i just like the way the feel and shoot.

[COLongbow]

R/D Longbow. Love it. But I've got a hankerin' for a BW PCH! (Wife says Yeah like that's gonna happen.)

[ratgunner]

Recurve for now. I switch alot.

[robtattoo]

Gun to my head, one shot I had to make, life on the line, I'd have to go with my Morrison Cheyenne.
I love all my longbows, I prefer the look, the way they shoot, the quietness, everything about them all. I just shoot my Cheyenne better than any other bow.

[xtrema312]

Hybrid long bows, best of both worlds for me.

[smokin joe]

I am more accurate with my recurves. But I like to shoot both.

[Two Dogs]

Longbow

[ripforce56]

All straight  limbed longbows!

This Year is The Year of the Recurved Bow for Me. Back in 2004 before I joined Tradgang I had a Bear Hunter T/D Recurved Bow...

The riser cracked and NOT KNOWING any better I sold it and Got a Shrew Original 54" Long Bow Used. Used that from 2005 - 2008. I Sold My Shrew in late Summer, I Made a Selfbow and wanted to just stay with that bow...

Now Since March of This Year I have and will be hunting with a PSE KingFisher Recurved Bow w/woodies & 160grn Snuffers

Recurves - long live Fred....

Most of my bows are hybrids/ longbows, plus a few T/D recurves and self-bows.  Really doesn't make much difference. I hunt with them all.
