my favorite longbow is my dan quillan long bow it is 45 lbs at 28" draw and my recurve is a browning wasp 47 lbs at 28 inch draw. actually they are the only ones i own now but i am looking into other recurves and longbows. the nice thing about the dan quillan bow is that i got to finish it the way i wanted it so i went with cherry wood stain and low luster varnish. sure looks good to me and it shoots great
