I learn't to shoot (and continue) a recurve, and find that this in no way infinges on my longbow technique.


Kae.

I'll agree with that statement.

I have been shooting four four years now and I used a trainer bow 22IIBS pull then brought a really good second hand Hoyt Recurve bow a full kit for £125.00 pounds. I have now brought a new Recurve bow and just got my first Longbow which I am very excited about and have been taught to make my first dozen longbow arrows and it was a lot of fun doing that.

Welcome to such a passionate sport hope you get the bug big time.
