That sounds good. I'm kind of leaning toward the longbow. My use will be mostly backyard practice, but I'd like it to have enough azz to hunt with also.
Mostly I just want to enjoy working on mastering the discipline and technique with one bow.
Longbow is much more challenging and fun to hunt with IMO.
With today’s technology, I feel like I’m almost cheating when hunting with a modern compound.
And as far as the longbow being enough to do the job properly, it’s been killing stuff for centuries. From bison to rabbits.
I will add that if I’m bow hunting any where, I’m packing a pistol for backup. And if I’m in black bear country, it’s a Glock 20 in 10mm. 🤠. I’d pack it just about anywhere except Alaska.
