All of the above.
Long bow, flat ALB, ELB (kinda new to the English long bow, but its growing on me), recurve, etc. Dont shoot war bows or horsebows but would like too.

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.
