“Preparing to Hunt with a Recurve Bow”
Why Choose a Recurve Bow for Hunting?
• Instinctive Shooting: Most recurve hunters shoot without sights, using instinct and repetition to aim — excellent for quick, close-range shots.
• Simplicity: Fewer moving parts means less can go wrong in the field.
• Quietness: Much quieter than compound bows, giving you an edge in stealthy situations.
• Lightweight and Agile: Easier to carry and maneuver in brush or a tree stand.
• Closer Connection: Many hunters find it spiritually and physically rewarding — closer, more ethical, more immersive hunting.

🦌 Game Suitable for Recurve Hunting
Recurve bows are effective for:
• White-tailed deer
• Elk (with higher draw weight)
• Turkey
• Wild hogs
• Small game (rabbits, squirrels)
The key is matching draw weight and arrow setup to your target species. For deer, most states require a minimum draw weight of 40–45 lbs.
• Recurve Bow (typical draw weight: 40–60 lbs for hunting)
• Arrows: Usually carbon or aluminum, spine-matched to your draw weight
• Broadheads: Fixed or mechanical, razor-sharp for clean kills
• Quiver: Back, hip, or bow-mounted
• Glove or Tab: Protects fingers while drawing
• Armguard: Prevents string slap injuries
• Silencers: For string vibration/noise reduction
Tips for Success
1. Practice Instinctive Shooting: Accuracy comes from muscle memory and repetition.
2. Get Close: Ethical range is typically 15–25 yards — prioritize stalking and concealment.
3. Know Your Equipment: Tuning arrows and understanding trajectory is critical.
4. Strength Training: Draw weight is held the entire time you aim — no let-off like compounds.
• Always practice enough to ensure clean, humane kills.
• Keep your shots within your effective range.
