Traditional Recurve
Longbow or Recurve for hunting $400 maximun?
Im 13 5'9" want to hunt Whitetail Deer or anything smaller want something more traditional not modern like the PSE sequai
First, you should be able to pull a 45 lbs bow (recurve/longbow) while you are tired. Anything less will be too small of a bow to harvest a deer consistently. Second, you will have to consider the time you have to practice. A longbow can take much longer to master because it is less forgiving when you make a mistake. The shooting style is different. I shoot both and will shoot a recurve like a longbow but it does not work as well the other way. As far as , price....You Can get a decent bow for $400 either way. As I said before, I shoot both and enjoy them equally. I think that I like the longbow more, because the weight does not stack during the draw as much. I have a pretty long draw length. 31" with recurve shooting regular style and 29" shooting traditional with longbow. At your size, this will not be an issue yet. Good luck and have a great time!!! Remember to practice a lot.
