I think Im gonna be looking into the Excaliburs and possibly the PSE(gives me an excuse to buy a lower). Thanks for all the input guys.
I string mine by hand and it's not easy, but there are stringers available that make it much easier. (reminds me, I need to order a stringer!)
I string my bow at the fist part of the season and leave it strung until the season closes.
I don't believe it is harder on recurves to leave them cocked.
In my experience, recurves are louder than compounds.
I think the accuracy is about the same.
I'm not sure recurves are more popular, at least as far as the numbers in use in the field.
I think they are better because they are simpler, nothing to get out of tune, easy to restring in the field, more durable limbs.
Right now, the fastest crossbows are compounds if that makes any difference to you.
