I'm going to guess that your Crossbow skill is much lower than your Bow skill. Get your Crossbow skill up to match your Bow skill and then compare the two.

So you guys think if I max out my crossbow lvl it should be better than my bow?
Yes. The Drake Mounted Crossbow is far superior to the Recurve. You will see a significant increase in damage and crit, as that is the reason you are currently seeing such an odd difference.

The best place to lvl weapon skills if you are on a PvP server and just want to AFK whilst auto shot/hit does it's thing is Dire Maul. See
here
.
except in like 3.0.9 or 3.1 they nerfed those mobs so you can't gain weapon skill from them anymore.

I can guarantee they did not do it in 3.0.9 because I went there after that patch. Can't speak for now because all of my skills except thrown are 399 or 400.
I did things a little differently and just kept one of my old weapons of each type while I levelled, so all my skills were at 385 or higher when I hit 80.

your ammo is the most likely culprit for the damage discrepecies.
the bow is a slower speed and therefore will gain more damage from same dps ammo. compare the weapons WITHOUT ammo equiped to be sure.
