Livery Arrow record

<< < (6/10) > >>

Yeomanbowman:
Not really the point, but I doubt it.

WillS:
Just to clarify, nobody is officially claiming that its a "world" record.  I used that term because (as far as I'm aware) nobody in the world has managed to shoot a Livery arrow from a Mary Rose class bow 306 yards.  If that can be otherwise proven then great.  As it stands, it's the first record of it occurring which (in my mind) makes it a world record.

If I've got the definition of "world record" wrong, I'd be more than happy to know the correct one.  I do however currently stand by my belief that a world record is quite simply a record set under globally accepted specifications, which this is, considering the EWBS specifications for arrows and bows are accepted worldwide. 

Certainly if the EWBS specs were only accepted in the UK, this wouldn't be a world record.  ;)

 I call it perty good bow building. Heavyer the bow the hardest it is tiller.

brian:
  Just a little info on the 101 grain arrow shot it was a hazel wand stripped  and sanded  and a spine of 240 

brian:
Re my last post, did any body notice my deliberate mistake ten out of ten if you did, should read  101 GRAMS,not grains ::)
