Great advice Jason thank you. This Friday I will be going to my trusty bow shop and see what he has
and if possible shoot a few. I decided I will try to shoot both long and recurve bows to see what I like.

I have been fairly loyal to martin for a few years. I have a savannah longbow and a dreamcatcher. But I would look at a chek mate. Best value for the price. I liked the kings pawn over my dreamcatcher.

I really liked shooting black widow longbows especially iron wood.

I can't say enough good things about my Martin Hunter. I love to shoot it. I use it for bowfishing but have recently switched to a Martin Mamba. I traded a Martin longbow to get the Hunter and have a X-200 for my daughter. Every one of the Martin bows I've owned has shot exceptionally well.
That being said, there are many many fine bows out there these days. Try as many as you can. If your like me and just really enjoy shooting, you'll enjoy most of them.

Good Luck! and Merry Christmas.
