Medieval War bow - Yew self Longbow POA

Medieval War bow - Yew self Longbow POA

The medieval Warbow - Iconic and deadly, used by our ancestors for a very, very long time, even resisting the firearms that's eventually superseded it.

Have your very own High Quality Yew Warbow made bespoke by us, choose your poundage and draw length, horn nocks and arrow a plate come as standard of course. We Use high quality Pacific Yew, Italian Yew and for lower poundage bows sometimes English yew of the highest quality. 

The style is the Medieval war bow, which has slightly different design features to a butt/target bow. The medieval style offers bows of heavier weights far more security, whilst spreading the higher forces across more of the bow and slightly through the handle. This is called full compass. All the bows are tilered to full compass for strength and security. The length of the bow varies, most of my mid weight bows are around 74"- 76", heavier bows go up to 80". Don't get to wrapped up in this as a longer bow is a safer bow and smoother to shoot, unless your very small in which case email us, otherwise we'll make the call on length relevant to the poundage you choose.

Full Price: POA (Price on Application)

We've had to make our Yew bows 'price on application' as costs have more than tripled for Yew staves, we tend to use Pacific Yew from BC Canada but the costs have gone through the roof. Staves are now around £300 plus postage. Typically the average target weight bow is £895 but we can't commit to that as the waiting list is 9- 12 months for bows and the prices are rocketing in that time scale. Please email us through the contact us page for more information or alternatively consider a triple laminate with a Yew core medieval style found in the previous menu. Excellent bows that we have lots of stock for in our workshop.  


PRICE: £100.00
