[Bryn-gwlad] August Archery Tourney!

[Sarah & Richard Yeager]

A longbow is normaly a bow at least 5 foot (60" ) That is not a Recurve or
Compound. With that said traditionaly a longbow was made from all wood. But
they now also come with various backings, such as Fiberglass, Snake skin,
raw hide, bamboo or other woods.

I am not sure what definition Karyn is useing, but I will asume its similar
to the above description.
