Just wondering why some people prefer a longbow over a recurve and vice versa. I currently shoot a recurve and have never really shot much on a LongBow. I guess that my first bow was a recurve and I have not used to much of anything else. But, I am going to buy a longbow and use it for a while just to see what I like better. I really don't believe that you can tell which one is better suited for you with only a few shots. Input would be appreciated.
