92% longbow
6% selfbow
2% recurve
(Give or take)
My main bow is my longbow--I use it for hunting, playing, tournaments, etc. Shoot some tournaments with my selfbow, but don't practice or hunt with it much. Use the recurve for bowfishing, but may shoot a tournament or two with it this year.

Both. I love longbows but shoot better with recurves. Can't live a full and complete life without having at least one of each in the home.

Well, currently, I own six recurves (plus two extra sets of limbs), andfour longbows. I have found though that my radical R/D longbows has dwindled down to one though which is my Adcock (won't ever part with).
I would honestly say though that if my elbow could handle the shock of the standard "d" longbow, it would be the only style that I would shoot.
