I am going to keep shooting my Son's Bear, I will be saving for a lighter bow, and am going to have to buy some shafts of the correct spine.  Right now the arrows are flying to where I want them, but 2 of the 4 take a lot longer to settle down.  If the feathers and glue I ordered ever show up I will make up a couple and leave the shafts full length to soften the spine up a little.  I have never had any luck at all with the longbow I have, it is a 55# Hollenbeck, and between the handshock and the fact that it feels like it pulls harder than my 60# Martin, I haven't shot it in years.  I had really wanted to shoot a Longbow, and it brings back childhood memories, but the facts for me is that I shoot the recurves better, and confidence is a major player.  Thank you again for all of the kind posts and the Sage advice, 50 is right around the corner, but 20 years of service put a hurting on the old body.
