Looking for First Longbow
« on: December 13, 2012, 03:48:05 pm »
This is my first venture into archery, outside earning my merit badge in the Boy Scouts 25 years ago. I would like to find an affordable English style longbow. I would like something at least 72" long with a 45 to 60 lb pull. Wood type does not matter, as long as it performs well for a beginner.

If you have something, please contact me directly BrenMk1@gmail.com


Thanks and Happy Holidays!

The English Longbow is one of the easier designs to make for a first bow, too!

Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.
