@JohnTheRipper2 kool ive been doing it for nearly 3 years and ive only got a 45 pound longbow but saying that iv never tried to bother anything more lol

@griffingeo 'bout a year. Since i posted the previous comment my draw weight increased considerably. I shot a 62 pounder and thought it was a 35. I guess i can now easily pull 70+ lbs, even though i'm skinny (5' 11" and 144 lbs). Not bragging or anything, well.. maybe just a little :D

@Greyarcher1 its a waxed linen bag with a leather spacer and cordage sling. most hold up to 2 dozen bodkin point arrows. the top of the bag cinches around the fletchings to protect from weather. it can be worn over the shoulder or across the belt. they are inexpensive and very useful. but i would probably make them for less than what reenactors sell them for.
just look up medieval arrow bag on google and youll see :)

Hi there! your nock point is a`bit High,do a bare shaft test! and se" Greyarcher1" about your Quiver problem?

@Greyarcher1 what makes you think that? never had a problem with my quiver actually lol. i shoot from arrow bags. best quiver i ever used. not so great for broadheads. but i shoot mostly bodkins and armor piercing heads so it doesnt effect me much.

I love how you can see the arrow coming towards you and hear it hit the target. How heavy is your pullback? I own A 50 lb. pullback recurve and I have a hard time with it haha.
