Just a suggestion: go to stickbow.com and to tradgang.com for tons of info. Ask questions because you will have answers from very knowledgeable traditional bow shooters and hunters from all over the country. They are all great guys who are very anxious to share any experiences with you.
The short answer: yes, there are many, many recurve bows out there that are as good as and, in my opinion, better than the PSE stuff from overseas. Check out the two web sites above. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
Best of luck, Arch
