[Ansteorra-archery] Period-ness, when is a bow not period due to the string?

[Frank Schalles]

Archers!

Is a long bow not period when it does not have a period string?

Even a Flemish string is made with modern material. So is a
period bow not period when using a modern string?

I seek a debate, wisdom, and common sense. Where do we draw the line?
