Recurve vs Longbow

[Gunpowder]

What is the difference in shooting either of these style of bows ? I have shot recurves for years but never the longbow.

Not much really you will have to try one for yourself to see

I've been wondering the same thing. I've been lurking on this forum for a little while now and hope to purchase my first traditional bow in the off season.

Thanks for the link Al. Definitly a lot of good info in their for a noob.
