Yeomanbowman:
Very nice tiller and an impressively minimal amount of string follow.  The yew looks interesting with the course grain, is it dense?
Cheers,
Jeremy

Lukasz Nawalny:
yes I correct my yew bows on hot steam.This longbow on video is one of the fastest longbows what I ever made.European yew, dense growth rings.Over 250 yards distance range with hevy war arrows 47 gram and only 28 inch draw lenght - this bow I have made special for tournament in Poland - guys with asian bows said that longbow, even little stronger cann not be so fast like asian bows - after this competition they said - can be even faster  ;)

nickf:
henry, that's some great shooting, though you might want to increase your drawlength a lttle, and try to work on the draw itself. I'm sure you'll master ths bow sooner or later ;)
