I know a guy that has an original Howard Hill longbow in the 80 to 85 pound range @ 28.
He will probably want your first born child with a little boot. Will let you know.

So you must have some strength and power.
Not many people can shoot traditional equipment at that draw weight with any accuracy.
Are you headed to Africa?

They make some fast bows nowadays if speed is what your after....

I had a buddy in High school who’s dad was a world class archer with a long bow. He was on impossible shots, Letterman and various other tv shows.
Him and my buddy were making custom bows in Hartselle.
Byron or Zac Ferguson That's cool.just recently learned byron was from Alabama.

Byron or Zac Ferguson Back in the early 90’s Byron shot in my group in a couple of 3D tournaments. He could shoot a nickel out of the air but missed his fair share of those 3D animals.

Just how big a boy are you? A damn biggun apparently.

I shot with Byron down at lakes archery and had no idea who he was he just ask me to shoot with him. We shot about the same on the 3D range but then he started trick shooting. It was awesome to watch in person and having my own private show.

english bowmen routinely shot 100-125-pound yew longbows, firing very heavy war arrows. by law, they had to shoot often, and had curved spines because of it. they were not big dudes, by our reckoning ...
