Hickory longbow I'm fairly happy with. 72" overall, 71" ntn, 42#@28", rigid handle with some grain runoff, fairly heavily trapped (~1" on the back, ~1.5" on the belly). Nocks are wedges of hickory glued and then lashed on with linen thread.
Shoots real nice, even with the horrible arrows I use.

Cool bow, i like the simple one as much as the elaborate ones.
