got this link fro a finnish primitive bow site. http://www.florilegium.org/files/NORSE/Norse-archery-msg.html
seems that the bows are about 72" long and weight always over70# exept kids bows ect. D style from yew. kinga like english longbows exept for the nocks (no horn) and the draw is shorter. about 28". drawn to the chest.
