osage molly warbow (now with pictures)

<< < (4/8) > >>

fusizoli:
This bows was not so big and heavy weight originaly. But from all kind of bow design schould make a "warbow"

That time the hunting bow was the weapon in the war. Whitout armour they doesn't need the heavy warbows as Nidrinr mentioned.

I think for a heavy warbow the longbow design is better on this drawlenght. On a 28-29 draw may a pyramidal flatbow is better.
On a molly the lever end of the bow have to build enough strong to handle this weight. That will indicate to much weight and this bow designed for light weight tips. So my opinion is a pyramidal design will be faster.

ya, i agree, the levers will defiantly decide the final weight, well i guess ill just have to see, by the way, i should have some progress tonight along with the white ash so check back on both later
