Main Discussion Area > English Warbow
Laminate v1.2 as promised
adb:
I agree with Ian. When I first started shooting warbows, I was holding the bow well below 45 degrees. It seemed ridiculously high, but 45 degrees is optimal. Once you get used to it, it does feel normal. You will get another 20-30 yards with optimal initial trajectory angle.
Ian.:
We haven't seen a bow from you for a while Adam, anything on the horizon.
adb:
You know what... I've made a bunch of bows lately, but no heavy stuff. I finally got around to making a nice bow for my wife, a little yew recurve, and a couple of others. I just haven't gotten off my lazy arse and posted any pics yet! Maybe I can get motivated to do that soon!
I do have a tri-lam glue-up I just started tillering last week. It's maple, purpleheart, and osage, and if I don't get 100# out of it, I'm going to be choked. I'll keep you posted on progress.
Ian.:
Excellent, look forward to seeing it.

Sounds to me like the English would be jellous of your bow :laugh:
