Bow versus bow

Article Abstract:

The choice of hunting is a matter of personality and lifestyle. One hunter loves the longbow and recurve for their simplicity and connection to the past. Another hunter, who is more at home with technology, prefers the compound bow for its accuracy, reliability and easy learning curve.

Back to the future - the one-cam bow

Article Abstract:

Single-cam bows eliminate the tuning problems of two-cam bows and have less bowstring oscillation. The quiet consistency of the one-cam bow more than compensates for its slower arrow speed. The popularity of single-cam design is a trend that will continue.

Compounds, simplified

Article Abstract:

The cable-and-wheel setups of compound bows relax during a full draw, which makes shooting easier than with a longbow or recurve. Hunters should choose a bow that has a comfortable draw weight, and accessories such as arrow rests are helpful.
