Been shooting 'curves and longbows(mostly 'curves) for most of my life--maybe 35-38yrs now.Hunted with a compound for a few years in the late '80's early '90's but could never get used to the break-over and the hunting sights back then really sucked.

My hunting bows this year will be a 58" Shafer Silvertip t/d recurve,51#@27(back-up curve is a 58" Tip t/d,54#@27"),Carbon Express Heritage 150 tipped with 125gr Magnus Stinger.

My go-to longbow is a 64" Black Widow PLV,50#@27",(back-up longbow is a 64" Shafer 1pc,50#@27")same arrows

My effective range is around 25yds((if all feels right)but my "fangs come out" zone is 15yds and under
