Those who know me associate me with the longbow almost exclusively. However, for the last week or so, I have been playing with the recurves. I have a Red Wing Hunter, a Kodiak Super Magnum, and a Jeffery bow of unknown nomenclature that I have been shooting.
I ordered the Jeffery somewhere around 1990? at a good price. According to the dealer who got it for me, it was a pre-production prototype or some such designation. It has the classic Jeffery look but no company logo or markings. It may not have been selected for general production, but it sure flings an arrow nicely.
All these bows are cut a lot closer to center than any of my longbows, so they seem to handle quite a selection of arrows quite easily.
Sometimes it just fun to deviate from your normal routine. Surprisingly, accuracy was very good, and even though I have not shot them regularly for a long, long time, I would not hesitate to hunt with them today.
Going to a shoot next weekend, so I may take both the longbow and a recurve. That ought to be fun!
