A tall self-bow of seasoned yew or ash, drawn to chin height with a steady seventy-five pound pull — a stave any strong yeoman or seasoned huntsman can manage, though not yet the warbow of a muster archer. It is the village hunter’s bow, reliable for deer and boar at moderate range, and sturdy enough for skirmish, road-defense, or an ambush from the hedgerows when the militia is called to muster.
Longbow 75
Seventy-five pound village hunter's reliable bow; skirmish-worthy.
