A central place to talk about weapons and armour, as it relates to your kit. This is where you show it of or talk about making it. Discussing the relative merits of types of weapons goes in the WMA section.

Longbow Making Article

Post by Mirimaran »

Hi all,

Here is a great article that I enjoyed reading and I thought to share with the group:

http://www.huntingsociety.org/BowMakingLong.html

It is an excerpt from the book, "Hunting with the Bow and Arrow" by Saxon Pope.
"Well, what are you waiting for? I am an old man, and have no time for your falter! Come at me, if you will, for I do not sing songs of dastards!"

That reminds me of this article (and entire website!): http://www.primitiveways.com/hatchet_bow.html
