Gimlis Ghost:
I wonder if this guy could use it as a bow.

bownarra:
There was an eastern European fella on youtube a few years back that was pulling 200# with relative ease. Thumbring as well.

Badger:
  Several years ago I made some 300# white oak self bows. I only tillered them out to 24".  When they were filming the show they were drawing them out to 32" and they took a massive set and lost most of their power. They were 7 ft long. I would really like to see that bow shoot an arrow even if it comes from a crossbow.
