We as a family own 5 bows. My primary shooter is a longbow and my backup is a recurve. Both shoot the same arrow at about the same speed so they have the same point of impact. I also have a recurve that I'm putting a plastic rest on for wet weather shooting. My wife shoots my backup (it's really her bow) and my daughter has a recurve that she can shoot. The last bow is an all wood (bamboo/Osage) longbow that a friend made before he passed away. I shoot it sparingly, wanting to be able to enjoy it for many many years before it's taken so much set that I have to hang it up.
