I have a few recurves and longbows, and was wondering what is the best way to keep them for long periods of time while not in use? Can I lay them on either the front of the bow, or back of the bow. Would it be better to keep them strung or unstring them? Does it hurt a longbow to stand unstrung against the wall in the corner? I also have a pretty zebra wood longbow 20+ lbs. that a limb is twisted on, can that be fixed, or should I just hang it on the wall now? Not worth a lot, but just pretty. Thanks, Bob
