Description

We agree on the length according to the required draw weight and draw length. Should it differ from the standard 74” length there can be an extra fee in shipping cost. A warbow over 100 lbs can occasionally be ordered but no deadline will be undertaken. 

The added Dacron string is a flemish string: the archer will make the bowyers knot by setting the brace height. For your request we'll make it for you and help you to learn the method by a short video. Fastflight fix string that doesn't stretch is also suitable for the bow.

Good to know
The feature of the bow is its simplicity. It was the feared weapon of the archer infantrymen because of its range. Well-known from the Hundred Years War (1346. Battle of Crécy: 16,000 English won over 30,000 French) Traditional material of this bow is yew. Yew can be quite well replaced with osage orange that is easier to get supplied and cheaper.
