English Longbow "Yeoman"

A traditional English longbow. This longbow is an absolute purist and conceived for the robust fields of application, as for LARP for example. As its construction corresponds to old English models, its appearance on medieval markets is very appreciated. It consists of several coats of ash and hickory that are glued together. A combination of vertical and horizontal growth rings gives the bow both an elevated shooting power and an excellent stability. It is equipped with a hand made Flemish splice string. Its surface is protected by a natural hard oil which makes it sturdy and water repellent. At any rate we recommend you, starting from a draw weight of 40 lbs, to order additionally a back made of bamboo (art.nr. 1535). Thus your bow will become more resistent and quicker.
