I made the same oath in July once I found the right arrow setup. My shooting has improved dramatically by just remaining consistent.
I’m getting the urge to buy a longbow now though. I just have a feeling I’d shoot a longbow really well.
My oath – to avoid being impulsive – was that I would make the switch ONLY after my first deer with a recurve. This was before the season and when I was really confident I would shoot a deer.
Now I’m not so sure I can hold out that long.
