[Ravensfort] Combat Archery

[Jeff Watson]

Really, right now, I have way too much on the table to take the time to
learn to make one, I would in the future LOVE to learn to make one.
However right now this is my list of things to do.

1) finish my helmet
2) make splinted cuisses and greaves
3) make sabatons
4) finish frame for pavillion
5) sew sides for pavillion
6) finish kidney pouch
7) Make armor for my lady

and the list goes on. I thought it would be prudent to purchase a bow so
she could go ahead and start practice.
