![]() |
A weapon of war The longbow was the most effective & deadly weapons until the invention of the gun. Medieval longbows have been found having 150lbs+ draw weight, this would project an arrow well over 120mph for approx 200yds. With each longbow man loosing approx 12 arrows a minute the sky would darken with "a storm of arrows" Without the archery bow (longbow), Agincourt (August 1415) would have had a totally different outcome. |
Archery - An old pastime & life style Many of the terms we use today originate from the medieval times like: "Another string to your bow" |
