I was reading a thread where one of the other member's made a recurve bow in the Workshop area and it got me to thinking. How many of us use traditional archery for hunting? I have used a compound bow in the past. I can remember only two people that hunt with recurve's in the last twenty years. Everyone else has used a compound or maybe a crossbow that I know. My uncle and one of the guys I used to work with were the two that both used a recurve bow. For some reason in mind all the compound bows I have shot, probably between 6-10 different models, have all been easy enough to use even the one's with a 70 pound draw weight. But the few traditional bows I have attempted to use have been absolutely awful to me. Has anyone else had the same experience?
