Default RE: longbow - recurve arrow question

The rule of thumb is about 5# of spine for every inch of draw, so 45-50 or 50-55# spine should get you where you need to be. Recurves usually have the shelf cut deeper and will allow you to shoot a heavier spine vs. most longbows that are cut to center, or just shy of it.
