Whatever... try it out. Try to bring a 1600grain arrow to 300yards.  Or try to bring a simple 10gpp arrow to 300yards. 8)

Simon did, you just didn't want to believe it.

ceolith:
...maybe yes. maybe no. there is no offical list to see that. only a arrow...

And if he does that, than not with a self-yew.

I know that simon shoot a hickory-backed oregon yew from chris boyton for a long time. glued with a reflex in the bow these distance could be possible. but never ever with a 1600 grain arrow on a 160# self-yew

Badger:
      That record does seem quite impossible at 10 grains per pound. For comparison a modern recurve bow shooting 9 grains per pound reached a distance of about 330 yards and is considered one of the strongest records held. I hold a 10 grain per pound record with a backed bow at 230 yards and another with a self bow at 221 yards.

ceolith:
THANK you for your support!  ;)
