The Recurve

Posted on June 23, 2011 9 Comments

Over the next few weeks, I’ll be posting videos on how to set up a recurve. This is a really great series that shows some tips and techniques that I’ve learned over the years that will help you be a better traditional archer.

Now anyone who has ever switched from a compound to a recurve knows that it’s no easy task. But with some practice and learning how to properly shoot one, harvesting any animal with a traditional piece of archery equipment can be one of the most rewarding trophies in a lifetime.

I’m really excited about this series and look forward to getting your feedback on what you think.

own both a compound and recurve, but am switching back to the recurve tired of all the Hi- Tech crap, so really want to learn on the set-up issues.

Switched to recurve last season and won’t ever go back, love shooting it and hunting with it so much more rewarding. Pretty cool that somebody finally dedicated a show to traditional archery. Looking forward to seeing it!

I’ve been hunting with a recurve for 16 yrs now and would recommend everyone try it at least once. You have to be dedicated and if killing is your game it’s not for you!

Recurve is just as good to hunt with as a compound. Ask Fred bear and how many animals in the world he killed with one.
I’m getting my Black Widow in about 6 weeks and can’t wait. But my Hoyt Huntmaster 50# recurve that is 25 years old still carries a punch even at 60 yrds.
Can’t wait to see the Recurve Videos. Thanks for all the past ones.
