I wanted it to be a 'war-weight' longbow, which is typically 80-100+#. I stopped at 83 pounds because I think by the time I break it in, it will be near 80#. I plan to hunt hogs with it, so I wanted it to hit hard. Hogs are tough!

And, I also wanted a taste of what the longbowmen at Crecy, and Poitiers felt.
