The longbowshop i talk about is in the UK they ship everywhere in the world. Only if u buy from them for somebodys birthday i recomend you order 5 weeks before that as it took a month to arrive when i ordered and indeed i live in N.J.

Steve: the drawing technique is just something i was messing around with till i found the right technique and i kind of copied Nick birmingham's drawing style. Im hoping to get hold of some better wood like ash but i dont think im in for yew yet.

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.

I will second that that is one hell of an achievement at that age, and that you did it all on your own very well done. I think it should be bow of the month.

Nice Draw!!  ;D You dont want to have your index finger on top of the arrow like that though,try to keep that finger under the shaft.
