Looking at old photos of yew bows at the York Rounds and the bows often have a very elliptical tiller, some even whip-tillered.  Combined with narrow tips and light arrows this works.  Also need good overall length to avoid stacking with this tiller approach.

"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
