@dgrayman71 thats a very goo point you have there sir. but most recurve bows shot in competition are not high poundage bows for that very reason... i think its more of an all out strength kind of deal on that one...

@shawnzingerdinger I would be to differ. On a compound you have the left off where the cams take over. On a recurve there is nothing to take off your slack. When you pull back you are pulling every pound that the bow has. The farther back you pull the more weight you are pulling and have to maintain it until you release. It makes for a harder shot when trying to keep the arrow back and not let it go and then get your sights onto target.

@Robearwgl Hoyt is the only company that makes a decent bow that keeps its consistancy. Samick and a few others have made it in. However, most people feel better with something that combines wood and carbon fibers versus a lot of wood and laminates.

For everyone that says anything about sights, let me give you some food for thought. In the Olympics, normal shot is at 70 meters. Do the conversion, 76 yards, visual please. You are at the end zone, shoot it at the 25 yard line. Not in front of you, but on the other side of the field. In the World Cup it is set at 50 meters, past the 50 yard mark. Can you really make that shot without sights and get the angle right? Most people cant, that is the reason for sights, correct angle and trajectory.

@Robearwgl I don't think so
The woman recurve finals were shot with win&win inno caron
I think man recurve finals were shot with inno carbon too,
there was Win&Win and Hoyt
(correct me if I'm wrong though)
-
WTF, is Hoyt the only bow allowed?

@shawnzingerdinger Bollocks

Just for comparison I should be in there with my 65 lb yew longbow and my Port Orford cedar arrows.
70 meters

@archigaga you can argue with me all you want but when you can show up shoot and shoot a compuound at that distance and score well then you can talk shit to me i score in the same area with my recurve as i do my compound, both take alot of skill to shoot. if you showed up to any fita shoot you will see what im talking about, but i think you need to know how to shoot before you come out. no offense but if your using trad equipment with no sights thinking you can compete you are entirely wrong.
