Blackhawk, sorry if I'm the one who dragged you into this conversation
I probably need to clarify while this is only a 'conversation' and battle lines aren't being drawn yet- anyone who has tried to build a bow from a piece of wood knows it can be a thin line when it comes to overbuilding a weapon versus creating an attractive piece of art...and given my unpolished skills and periodic lack of patience, I strongly lean towards having a bow that can be picked up anytime and trusted to fling an arrow without complaining. Overbuilding is good.

I love long bows, and this one is near perfect, except for the snake on the back, but all things considered, it still gets my vote.
