Long Recurves

[Steelhead]

I have had quite a few 64 inch recurves and a few 66 inchers.I also have had alot 60 and 62 inchers that work well for me.Some 60 inchers did not fit me very well and also some 62 inchers.Depends on the bows design and your draw length as well

In general the longer ones are smoother to pull and pleasant shooting and typically have a little more mass weight.

I currantly have a 64 inch Tall Tines that I really love shooting and enjoy in every way.

I draw 30 inches.

What Ryan said.  Longer lever.  More forgiving.  I've never noticed any problems with the length - and I sit on the ground.

I had a 64" that I gave to my son, I always thought that was a nice shooting bow. I currently have a 60" 55# and a 66"38# recurve.
I don't shoot the 38#anymore- it was my dads, but I did use it a couple of years for league competition and it was sweet also.

I have been concentrating on longbows lately, but I had to remark that I started shooting my 60" recurve and am enjoying it again. Maybe I should try a 62"-64" recurve. Good reason to buy another bow, right?

We have a bunch of guys that love our 64" silky smooth draw. Just a a joy to shoot !!!

Depend you draw lenght,to long and you loose generaly some speed,to short the bow can stack,take a look at Bigfoot bows,this bow maker can adapt any bow lenght at you draw
