This is an excellent point. I know gunner can likely draw an English war bow, but form matters most of all and especially with trad bows.


Yes, used to shoot for years an old round wheel Oregon Deschutes bow with a 90 lb draw, it happens to still be the quietest and smoothest compound bow I've ever had/fired.


I may have your old Oregon...
