Can't go wrong with a Schafer recurve or long bow. I wouldn't pass it up if its a good deal. Good luck

chuckbow,  i have a 1pc schafer longbow and it is a phenominal bow, like all schafers. the silvertip recurve gets most of the attention but dave's longbows are a well kept secret in my opinion. i'd get the bow either way. i you didn't like it you'd have no trouble with a trade/sale.

good luck,   mike
