Post by: skychief on July 29, 2012, 11:45:00 PM
Are static tipped recurves harder to shoot well than regular recurves?

Thanks, Skychief.

I don't find them harder to shoot... but slightly trickier when stringing!

Once strung, I find them quite gentle.

I have a 53 kodiak static and other than this one I shot a Genesis Static and to me they feel like longbows,, really cool bows...


as hawkeye said its stringing those suckas that proves to be the challenge

Nope.

Just need extra care when stringing. But, not a big deal. Mostly, be careful unstringing. They tend to want to twist out during the let down.

I almost think that they are easier to shoot. Smooth and quick. I like them!
