Needs to be a heavy English longbow. Stave is 81 inches.
Design I'm using can make bows 200lbs.

Here's the start of a 90# I built, which you can follow through...

Worth looking at the previous post too as it's where I handle the Mary Rose bow, you can see how big they are

Apparently not too bad. Needs cleaning up and blending.

Yeah, Del! Not cool to see the pics then keep em to yourself! We wanna play too!!
Glad Del chimed in on this one, no doubt others could have handled it as well, but probably none better.

The pics were far too titillating for a family forum
