Wow i cannot think of anyone else.i would be prepared to place such a job in the hands of anyone but you . Speaks of your skill talent and reputation . Eell done .

Now if ever you need tp get rid of one. My victorian longbow just broke and i only can make selfbows...

Best reaction video ever! Hurrah for master Cox!

My last name is Bowmaker. Our family are originally from England and now we're in Australia.

What is the problem if the arrow is longer? I always tought only its mass matters.

Vocês tem vários arcos ai que ninguém usa? Vendam eles baratos.

Lance wood perhaps.

Are there any advantages to starting with a square piece of wood rather than a round one? Absolutely beautiful end result

I like this old series and it is great fun to watch, although I know, it's neither an archery lesson, nor a history lesson.

Thanks big fella!!, speed of video is good for those dim like me....

It would be nice to know if there is a follow up video where you complete this stave into a bow

When refurbishing something that was made that long ago, do you find learn something new? As in do you notice that the old makers did their tips differently, the handle raps differently, the tillerbis slightly different? Things of this nature. And have you ever started using something you learned in this manner?

Watch closely on the second pull and it’s definitely closer to 27” than 26”. You’re definitely right 3 fingers will definitely draw the bow further than one contact point though.

I want me one of these. How much?

I never get fatigued from watching hands on fabrication shows. Intuitive! Bows- now your talking!! Wonderful skill and craftsmanship!! Guys, keep up the wonderful work!

I love their 'gang bang ' enthusiasm! It is great to be able to see what Horace Ford was talking and writing about in the mid 1800's

I wish you guys lived next door to me. I’ve a recurve, a few longbows and one shrimpy little flatbow that I bang the carp with. Great work! Your knowledge and shows are really enjoyed!!

You know, that was a very nice video! I harvest and pressure can rough fish, garden, make my own arrows and strings with patience. I enjoy craftsmanship ! It was on display with your video!!

Ofc Bow Box wasn’t a made up name for bow case or bow quiver.

Beautiful!💯💪

Another nice simple to understand video. My only query would be where you measure draw length too. You appeared to measure to the back of the bow. I would have thought true draw length was the distance between the heal of your hand on the belly of the bow and where the string finishes at anchor. Obviously a safe arrow length would usually be about 1 3/4 to 2 inches longer than your draw length. Its not really that critical if you are doing the measuring and checking draw weight as you just draw the bow the same distance on the measuring stick, but it can be confusing when people say they have a certain length draw but in reality its probably an inch or two shorter. Any guidance gratefully received.

Oh, please can I touch one😊

Absolutely the hands down best demonstration of this technique on the web. Well done snd thank you!

Thank You, Sir, for videos like this, how to tie nocking points, how to do a bowyers' knot etc. They help me to fix things on my English Longbow correctly, living in a country where we don't have teachers for English Longbow archery...

Uhh fancy tabletop Cricket ❤❤❤

Beautiful work...

Amazing history👍❤️🏹

What would they be worth i wonder 🤔

Now that is art!

I would love to see a video of the refinish like a how to video, also before and after photos of each of them 😁 🏹 Cheers Cody

Looks like small hands would be an advantage. Were fletchers mainly women or children?

Are they perfect Yew or laminated? Im glad the powderpost beetles didnt get to them.

English longbows ....made in Scotland!?

My God, what a treasure trove.

Ojla! Tell mi vats nid for making gud var nov . Wud, glue, glue ica problem.... Plis tenx

Wow

Lovely ❤

Wow 👍

Awesome piece of history.

Will they shoot again?

Wow, nice study. I had checked my bows ony with a simoke hook. The 3 finger variance of +#2 is notable...the string became a little shorter with 3 fingers on it, adding some weight. Thanks Richard.

Great Idea,thanks.

May I ask. Do you gentleman still run courses?

❤

High Niveau, nice work. Respect

Out of curiosity, why is the handle off centre?. Thanks

Love the wood pigeons

Why use yew as a core wood? Isnt the core of a tri lam, where you put a wood type that isn't upto any scratch as a bow timber?

Just to make sure I got it right, measuring the arrow to put those red marks have to be from the inside of the knock, where the string will be touching, right ? If the club and most of my friends have recurve bows, would the math be accurate enough ? Where should I consider the back of the longbow could be (plunger, end of the riser,a few inch after the grip like the width of a longbow could be) ? Thanks for the explanations !
