Wooden Longbow
Archery has long been THE means by which a fighting person could extend their reach. Longbow practice was at one time required for all English farmers and peasants. Henry V used the longbow to devastating effect at the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, decisively winning the day against a vastly superior force, and creating one of the greatest English victories in the Hundred Years' War.
And it all starts with the longbow. Out Wooden Longbow is a curved bow, made to look like the longbows of the Middle Ages, and it meets or exceeds all LARP safety standards for archery. It has a draw weight of 24-26 lbs at a 28 inch draw.
The Wooden Longbow measures 66 inches tall and is ambidextrous. The string is made from Dacron B50, a synthetic material that provides a great measure of reliability and safety when it comes to firing your bow. This bow can fire a variety of arrows, ranging from real arrows on a controlled course to the traditional LARP arrowsmade by IDV.
One string and a bow bag are included with the Wooden Longbow. It's LARP-specified low draw weight of ~25 lbs also makes this bow an excellent choice for beginners and younger archers.
