My 110# Mary-Rose Replica (Full Draw Pics)
duffontap:
Hey Guys,
Love to see all the great posts and interest going on here. I thought I'd keep up the momentum with a couple pics I got at the beach today. I work at a Bible college on the Oregon coast and I've been promising the students a Medieval day. We built a big trebuchet out of driftwood, had and ax throwing competition, played with swords and shot bows. I got a kick out of seeing 220# weight lifters unable to get my bow past 26". Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha..........ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!!!
I had some good shots for my low skill level. I was shooting a 1,050 grain arrow 200 yards into a stiff breeze. This was really one of the first days that it didn't hurt to shoot my bow. Another month of good days like this and I'll start building a heavier bow.
I'll post my new war bow (this is not it) in a couple days.
Man this stuff is fun!
