Title: Recurve Comparisons?
Post by: TickBoy on January 13, 2018, 08:58:00 AM
Don't want to step on toes here. I am ready to invest in a new recurve and just want some opinions on two bows I am looking at. Is this the correct forum?? FYI - Newer shooter.
Thanks

You can ask for opinions of bows in this forum without stepping on toes.  From past experience, you're likely to get opinions from people who have or have had the bows and like them, FWIW.

first I will offer, to check product reviews, second I would say need to go and try a few bows, many bowyers offer test drive, which is well worth it, as spend you money wiser.

Where in PA are you? I have 3 ILF recurves and a Jack Kempf Kykstyk recurve you can shoot if you like. I am in Whitehall.
O have several longbows too that you can try.

I see that you're in PA.  I'm on the western side of the state...where are you at.  I would highly recommend that you make it to ETAR...also in PA this year.  You will be able to try dozens of different bows and ask questions from some of the most knowledgeable people in the business.
