Default Which one to use?

This is the year I'm finally commiting to taking the traditional bows into the field. Now which one?

On the left: Harrison (AK Frontier Archery), Siberian Wolf Takedown Longbow @ 54# 60"

On the right: Great Bear Archery, Uganik Recurve @ 55# 64"

I am really partial to a nice comformed grip. So I would go for the right. Also like the extra length.

None of us can make that decision for you. Which ever one feels good in your hand is the one you should be hunting with. If they both feel good go with your gut Kodiak! Good luck with which ever one you choose!!

Actually I think I shoot the longbow a bit better and it's a bit faster, not to mention the convenience of it breaking in two for packing. The recurve sure is purdy though... I already knew the answer before posting this but wanted an excuse to show them off.[8D]
