Ill be the first to admit that my fondness for Hill styles makes it my number one choice for hunting and shooting, but there are times when shooting and or hunting with my my old curves or RFDF longbows just soothes the soul.
Each style has there own qualities, positive and negative, but  all are a joy to shoot, and are effective at getting the job done, so how do you  choose just one style? For me the answer is.... " I cant!" I have my preferred style, but enjoy them all with equal enthusiasm.
Yep for me the choice is simple...I lovem all!
How bout you?   :campfire:

Very well said.  I've never shot a bow I didn't enjoy shooting....just some seemed to like me better than others.

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

I've only ever shot Hill-style and recurves, but I love both of them for what they are. One day, hopefully soon, I'll get a chance to try out a R/D longbow. I really think I'll like it a lot, too.
Take care,

I agree. I am a dyed in the wool Hill bow shooter, but there are times when it is really fun to grab the recurves and fling a few arrows. The only reason I don't break down and buy a vintage Bear recurve is that I am afraid it could lead to an addiction.

Agreed.  I have a few more than a dozen bows.  My primary hunting bow the past several years has been a three-piece take down hybrid, but I also shoot self-bows, moderate r/d one piece longbows, Hill bows, and Bear takedowns.  It's all good.  And, no, I don't have any trouble switching from one to another. "Beware the person who has a lot of bows.  He probably knows how to shoot all of them."   :bigsmyl:

I love to shoot them all as well. I love my stalker right now. It shoots where I`m looking and is good to look at and just plain feels good. My Mohawk has all those same qualities as well. I really love a Hill bow and hope to shoot some more critters with one of them as well.RC

Same here. This past weekend, shot my recurve and one of my r/d longbows after 8 months of nothing but Hill style bows. Had a blast! I think I need to mix it up more often.

Quote from Howard Hill.( Whenever he taught someone to shoot) "Son make up your mind right now if you want to target shoot or hunt as theres a world of differance between the two"
