Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Bowhunting Thinking about a recurve

I've shot Shakespheres, Bears, Black Widows and some customs and though I'm by no means an expert I've several decades of pulling strings. My favorite is this very smooth Fedora take-down Hunter. I've taken some twenty deer with bows to date. With recurves, the most important thing is to not "over bow" yourself (for example,this is about max I want to pull in a recurve) be disciplined enough to shoot regularly and as with compounds, have your equipment tuned.








This is my Bruin recurve (have two sets of limbs-53# and 57# at 28"; length 54" and 58" respectively). It is shorter than the Fedora, very handy in blinds or on a stand with the shorter limbs. Ive taken a lot of game with it.
