Warbow myth?
Bernhard Langbogen:
We failed with a thickness over 1.230'' (dense flat sawn beech, 109 yard distance).
I used a oak arrow with a 160grain Bodkinpointed.
When i finished my yew ELB (~130lbs) we started a new test.
Photos would be follow.

You guys need to be on mythbusters with this.
Bernhard Langbogen:
:-\
What meanīs with mythbusters ?
Just as explanation.
I shoot now for 14 years with ELBīs (105-120lbs).
There are more myths about the english yew-bow than fleas on a dog.
A trough shoot with an 4'' oak flat sawn is a real myth.
But it is a nice topic at the campfire, ;D

Interesting discussion, though ;D.

Naaa, thoes guys are a bunch of nitwits. There too smart for their own good, no common sence.
Having said that, i do enjoy watching them from time to time. I think they really screwed up the robinhood myth, but whatever.
