Default RE: RECURVE OR LONGBOW?

I used a coupld of pieces of cardboard and a big C clamp abotu 1/3 up the limb. soaked only the limb (not the riser) in hot tap water for maybe 5 minutes ? Removed, twisted that bad boy using the C clamp as a grip, immeditaly strung it and let cool. I think i did this twice before I removed all the twist - good method IMO

Adcock, Acock ACS, Sley .... very smooth shooting, no recoil bows. Don't let these guys fool you, most recurves have shock/recoil as do longbows to a higher degree. Only after shooting a really smoooooooth bow does one realize this though, huh Chad ?
