--- Quote from: Badger on February 04, 2015, 11:31:13 am ---     Another possible opton would be not to create a war bow class in the new organization and any war bows wishing to compete would simply compete as unlimited draw weight english long bows shooting at a specified grains per pound, somehwere between 7 and 10 grains per pound is what we are discussing.

I think that may be the easiest option as the warbow community will then have a choice of shooting with their own societies and rules and/or shooting in this Federation.
It may also avoid the endless pedantic dicussions which seem to me to be a feature of the warbow fraternity.
Alternatively, an extra class of longbow 100#and over?

Badger:
 Del, lets just go with that idea, much simpler and we will still get the desired effect.

Excellent, can't beat a bit of executive decision making.

Sorry, I joined this one late.

Del, Bow X1-3 is outside of this in places.  It occures just before the parallel width tapers, which is what I find well designed mean wood bows tend to do.

Yeomanbowman:
So Badger,
what's the upshot?
