Holmegaard and Sudbury replica, maple and oak
« on: January 25, 2021, 04:24:18 am »
Two copies of ancient flatbows: Holmegaard and Sudbury made of maple and English oak.
Length 66" ntn, poundage about 47lb@27", set 1.25" (maple) and <1" (oak).
Finished with oil and wax, bowstring B55.

Both excellent designs for the wood used and Sudbury being very elegant.

Those are two very nice bows! The tillers do perfectly match to the bow profiles. Well done!

... I must definately get some oak!
