questions about yew
stuckinthemud:
Thanks for the link Markus, it is one Ive seen before, I reckon the bow needs a bit of tuning, 150 yards of 386lbs seems a bit on the.low side.
A composite is in the works, nearly finished prepping all the horn plates, but the type I'm most interested in is the yew and sinew, its been almost totally ignored as a type by researchers and writers but certainly did exist, though maybe not as a munition grade weapon
Badger:
With a 10-inch draw it would take about 600-lb to give you the power of a 50 lb bow I would go for about 200 pounds and maybe a 15-inch draw
