.Cable-backed Bow;

.Recurve Bow & Heavy Recurve Bow;

.Longbow.

In what huntings you use them, which one is more deadly and accurate, etc.

Which one you use for little, medium or big game.

Above all, which one is more silent to kill animals in herds, turkeys in flocks, etc.
Here you go, I made a video on these bows a while back.
Start of vid shows where to aim.
7:13 Shows penetration test.
15:04 What all the bows look like.

Heavy Recurve is the best by far. The other two are good for shooting Cottontails and Snowshoes while they sit under a bush.

A memorable rocky mountain elk hunt with the heavy recurve bow on video (especially the shot at 36:30): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyrbm9d ... .be&t=2190

I have all of them & like them for very reasons. I tend to not play the recurves much, using the blade of the broadhead is to much like a sight. Instead I mainly use the Longbow & Cable backed bow. If I had to pick just one it would be the Longbow.
