Default RE: I'm a Longbow Man Now

hey Bill...thats about perfect.

I do think you are kinda missing what me and Vic were getting at there though. Getting to heavy, 10 grains is fine, I know of one guy up here at 14 dang near 15grains per pound of draw! Just makes me wonder if there is a breaking point where that heavy of an arrow would be a less efficient total package then say a 8-10 grain per pound of draw weight set up would. I also wonder for those folks who were shooting godzilla bows like Howard Hill was.....80-100lb bows were the norm.....I wonder if he shot 800grain arrows out the hundred pounders, not talking his elephant arra, I thought that was like 1700 grains lol but his lions and such? ANyone know?
