      Steve, if you want to shoot without sights, stick with it, BUT find a club or a buddy that shoots a recurve/longbow who can give you some help. You need to work on:
      1) Form
      2) Tuning arrows to bow
      3) Concentration
      4) Repetition
      Good Luck!

        Go to one of the shoots that have a variety of bow vendors present. Shoot the ones that appeal to you and go from there. Black Widow does have a tryout plan. I love my Widows, but that is me. I shot them all before I ordered one. By doing some testing you will find the one that you just can’t put down. GOOD LUCK!

          in reply to: Have you ever considered a longbow ?? #24939

          TJ, I have always shot a recurve (30+ years) until 2005 when I bought a Black Widow Longbow. I bought it because it was something new to play with. I struggled with it for a while, until I decided to shoot it just like my recurves using a high wrist grip. My accuracy improved very quickly after making that change. The key was, I liked shooting my recurves and wanted to shoot the longbow also, but to use two different grips was not going to work when I shoot instinctively. Anyways, the longbow is now my main bow. I like its lightness making it very fast pointing. Find someone to loan you one for a while, but be aware :twisted:that the bug may get under your skin also!
