I would also prefer to go with choosing a new longbow, purely for the reasons that Daniel has already mentioned, plus on top of that, if the bow you order turns out to be a little lighter/heavier in draw weight, than you would like, you could always send it back to the bowyer and have the bow exchanged for one that suits your requirements
