Title: Hebrew Bows ?
Post by: deerhunter97370 on May 27, 2008, 03:25:06 pm

Does anyone have or no where to find info on bows used by the Hebrews in Old Testament times. Im wondering about wood used, designs, long, short, recerved. Thanks Joel

Since the Hebrew people lived in Egypt for awhile I assumed that they would have used the Egpytian deflex reflex composites.  Welch2 has looked into these bows and is currently building one.  Maybe he can chime in.
