Poll: What length straight limbed bow do you shoot

[Wudstix]

Just curious what the average length straight bow is.  Gonna make you pick your favorite.

[Even]

Mostly 66", but I have bows up to 72".   Current two favourites are 66" and 70".

[Wudstix]

I'll have a 66" soon.  Currently, two at 60" and two at 62".  Like the short hybrids for hunting.  We'll see about the longer bow.

67" lightning

[alaninoz]

68 and 70 but mostly 68. 66 D/R. I draw to 30" true draw length.

[Sam Spade]

Can you define straight longbow?

[Wudstix]

For this poll, it means limbs that are pool cue straight and those for the D/R bows.  I'll even include those bows that are Semi-curve, but not really recurve.

[Terry Green]

Wud, I'm pretty much figuring that you are talking about a bow where the string does not touch the belly at all.

60

[Wudstix]

I'll allow the Moosejaw Razorback that is a semi-curve and touches a tad bit more limb.

[Terry Green]

It's your poll, but that's not a straight longbow or a longbow at all. It's pretty well-known that if the string touches the belly of the limb it is not a long bow, yet you are still calling it that.

[Wudstix]

I know it is a semi-curve, but not by much.  This is not mine but a good pic.

[Hud]

2x what Terry said.   

[Michpatriot]

What u no likely dem chort bows? I choot 52"-54"..

[mjh]

Well I've got a Hickory self bow that goes 72 inches tip to tip.........

Always thought I was a long......longbow guy  66-68 inches being preferred.

Lucked into a R/D 60 inch bow a no cost to me.......it's a fine shooter....shot it most of the winter and into and through turkey season.....it's a keeper.....

[Mo_coon-catcher]

I like shooting English longbows so generally I make and shoot these around the 70-72" area.

[David McLendon]

66" & 70"

[katman]

64" hybrid, 68" asl, 2 different animals so 2 choices.

[Wudstix]

Got my Razorback and it looks good.  I might switch to 66" after shooting this bow a bit.

[Kirkll]

Are you talking about the shape of the bow unbraced being straight?   Or a D shaped long bow at brace?

[Wudstix]

Kirk;
Just not a recurve.
