If I were to make a functioning LOTR Lothlorien style bow of very heavy weight, I would probably use a modified Turkish design with composite limbs.

I liked the movies and the books also.  I consider them two distinct works of art that are related but not the same.  I liked the interpretation of the bow in the movies but I imagined a longer bow.

Any critter tastes good with enough butter on it.

Here is how to say "bow" meaning weapon, in Elvish: Cú (coo)   :D

I'm guessing your also a LOTR fan

Yes, I am a big LotR fan! I don't mean to drive this thread off topic but here is the website I got that Elvish translation from...
