OTDEAN:
Hi Guys,

Can you please give me advice on how I can slowly work my way up to a warbow.  I can currently pulling a 50lb longbow.  I would like to get to at least 100lb.  Are there any exercises I can do? 

Cheers

OTDean

Ian.:
Thats a big question, in simple there are no exercises that will simulate a bow like a bow, with good technique and a little strength 100 will come easy, can you make bows?

OTDEAN:
No I wish I could. 

Ian.:
First off get yourself a bow that will draw to 32" most people start with 80lb   then look at the videos out there and try to copy someone's technique that has the same build as you. It is very difficult to give advise on this as it is such a personal thing.

Young Bowyer:
Traditionally warbow users started at a very young age using  bows made for his build until he could handle a full sized bow, just keep practicing with your current bow and study the form needed until you reach your goal  :D
