      With a longbow i am 27 and with a recurve i am 28 ,its because of the high wrist grip.

          That’s the way I look at it, there is always different arrows to shoot ,alot of different spines,  I think that it is probably the best benefit a shooter has . Having the right arrow will make the most difference.

            I hear you, I hold my draw for a bit to get a good  anchor ,I only shoot  around 55# I just started shooting traditional again back in August, I remember why I like it so much now. I haven’t shot for about 15 to 20 years now ,but just in the past 3years i have been, a compound. But I got rid of it because of the constant tinkering with it, probably just me. Lol I really enjoy the longbow I have a Wes Wallace ,and ordered another one. Can’t have to many right.

              That’s all i own is longbows, I do agree with you about longbows, my opinion is as this, I think people find the recurve to be easier to become a better shot sooner I guess, I myself find the longbow to be more simplified design. Not much to go wrong other than the shooter . Use to shoot recurve years ago did well with it ,but enjoy the longbow more. Like you said beauty is in the hand of the  bow holder.

                Just to add to my question, if you want a bow that tunes easily, a longbow will shoot a bunch of different spines . Recurves seem to be more finicky about what arrow you use ,i guess they are not as cool looking? For some people.

                      Hi ,i have seen a pretty good scale in reloading, a Hornady digital scale for about 35 dollars  pretty  user friendly.  Grains  or grams  i think. Battery operated. Hope that helps.

                        It was fun to shoot, didn’t know much about them back then it was accurate though.

                          I like the one piece bows I guess, couple of takedowns only ,and I like only cut to center risers .I find it real interesting how the arrow paradox works .

                              I would try chuck Hawes @ chuck’s custom bows maybe . He is in Redding, ca just met him at a shoot ,i think he’s pretty capable of doing that.

                                Yes , I have always heard about them always great stuff, but only shot their recurves so yes looking forward to it. Great bow, like the Kota,  really like that one.
