How would you draw a 250 lb pull bow? Or was this actually a crossbow?
And how would you track an arrow, much less a quarrel for three miles?
I've lost not just a few quarrels just on our regular archery ranges,
particularly when the grass isn't mowed. :-(

In answer to your questions,
1st, I have no Idea how to draw a bow that strong, I have troubles with a 60
lb draw<g>. But the Chinese at one time required that you draw a 200Lb bow
just to get in, or something like that.
2nd, Yes it was a Horn bow, not a cross bow. I do know that you have to use
a thumb ring with it.
3rd, It was done out on the salt flat, sorry forgot to mention that the
first time.
Thank you for your questions.
mahee
ps. I faught many great urges to respond with a few real bad puns, but I
thought that if I did, the point would get me in the end<g>
