RE: What type of bow do you shoot?

I shoot almost always a recurve bow (Hoyt Elan with XP10 Border limbs).
From time to time, I shoot my barebow which is a recurve Martin X200 and... a mini-compound (Cartel) just for the fun.

RE: What type of bow do you shoot?

I mostly shot recurve, but in the traditional way, I think you call them barebow? you know no sights no arrow rests no stabilizers... and an american flatbow I recently bought, but it's harder than the old ones.

RE: What type of bow do you shoot?



An OLD compound that is too long, too heavy and too slow. Crusader Excel, 64# 46&quot;ata, 10&quot; brace height, 28&quot;dl. Cams are actually offset wheels. It has no sight, so I guess that it is 'barebow', sort of. </p>



I am planning to upgrade soon, though, so watch this space!</p>

RE: What type of bow do you shoot?

As a bit of a beginner I shoot a W+W Evolution, very basic sight, XX75's at 2016, a string given to me by the chairman of the club (I think he took pity on me having seen the one I was using) just added a Shibuya button, which has made a massive difference!!

I also have a 60lbs Bickertsaffe Longbow, which I havent actually shot yet, thats coming out next week.
