I shoot them pretty much the same in terms of accuracy, perhaps a slight edge to the recurve. The differnce is that to get this accuracy with a recurve my draw has to be slow and deliberate with a high degree of consistency in my form, stance, position, etc. With the Hill style longbow, I can shoot fast or slow and not have small deviations in my form and shooting position effect accuracy anywhere close to the way it does when I shoot a recurve. For this reason I hunt almost exclusively with my longbow. I shoot instinctively.
