What is the difference between a hunting bow and a target bow?
There is actually no real difference between a "longbow" and a "bow", since a longbow is simply a type of bow. There are many types of bows, as used in archery, and each type includes various sub-types: Longbow; Recurved; Flatbow; Shortbow; Reflex/Deflex; Compound; Crossbow; etc. While some people believe that a longbow must be made for the specific height of the particular person who will be using it, the only things that makes a bow a "longbow" are that it is normally (but not always) longer in length (nock to nock) than a recurved bow of a comparable draw-weight; the limbs are normally not very wide when compared to a flatbow of comparable draw-weight; and that when "braced" (when the string is installed on the bow) the string does not touch any part of the bow except at the nocks (the grooves the string sits in at the very ends of the bow's limbs). A "longbow" does not have to be six feet long to be usable by a person who is 6 feet tall. In fact, a "longbow" can technically be almost any length, so long as it meets the above three requirements. The Samick "Raider" Longbow is an example of a longbow that is "short" in length (it is only 60-inches in length), and when un-braced it resembles a recurved bow, due to its Reflex/Deflex design. But when braced, the string touches only the nocks, which makes the bow a Longbow.

What is the definition of a recurve bow?
Searching on wikipedia will give a more thorough answer than mine, but here are the basics... A recurve bow is a bow with limbs that curve away from the archer when unstrung, when it is strung, it keeps that distinctive curve and also gives more power in the draw when shot. Recurves were used especially by Mongolians and other horse-archers because their bows were short for portability and manouvering but were recurved to give them strength and tension when drawn for a powerful shot.

Which type of bow has straight limbs that form an arc when strung?
What you are talking about is a 'D section' bow as opposed to a 'recurved' bow, more than one type of bow can fit into this category, but for the most part, this will include two main types of bows: - English Longbow, this bow has stave like limbs, its name comes from the fact that "official" English Longbows are at least 6 ft tall. Longbows never have a shelf to hold the arrow, and instead the user's hand keeps the arrow on the bow. - American Flatbow, sometimes incorrectly called a "Longbow", its height is usually 5ft or more, they have flat limbs as well as an arrow shelf carved out into the bow. I hope this sufficiently answers your question.
