A guy at work today (a physical therapist, coincidentally) was having a going away party--he is moving to Alaska. We got to talking about manly man stuff and he told me about a local guy he knows who makes traditional longbows. I would love to get a traditional English longbow. Welsh archers could kill a combatant in full plate armor from 60 yards. With the Welsh archers, the English were known to defeat forces of ten times their size.
