Whether it's a re-curve or a longbow, what is your preference and why?
Of course, the take downs are easy to travel with and you can replace the limbs if the bowyer still makes them, but for me at least, once I put one together it stays that way and I have never had two sets of limbs for the same riser. That leaves me with only the traveling advantage for a take down and I have never had to pack one for air travel, and the posibility I may need to replace a busted or twisted limb which I have never had to do.
In my search for a new re-curve I am trying to decide which one I should go with. Perhaps I am overlooking some other advantages.
