I mainly shoot recurves and have for years, but I also enjoy the new R/D longbows. I currently don't have one but am looking.

Mostly selfbows for me. But I just acquired a Widow recurve  :confused:  All I can say is that I'm definitely TRAD!

Longbow only now, except for bowfishing, I still shoot an old mamba for that.

Currently selling my recurve which I never really used(shameless plug for my ad ).  The speed was fantastic but there's something I like better about the longbow. I have two of them. Oh yeah, they are easier to string.

It's interesting that it is almost dead even! That is if you put those that shoot most of the time with one bow or the other.

longbows- have recurves and shoot them well, but love the feel of the longbow

I own and shoot both, but my favorite bows are my Howard Hill big Fives. So i consider myself  Long bowman.

longbow

I shoot the recurve better but the longbow has always been my favorite.

There is something about shooting a longbow that I can feel all the way to my soul.
