| Having examined a large number of the Mary Rose bows in some detail, and shot some of Pip Bickerstaffes excellent replicas, I could highly reccommend a military style warbow. The bending through the handle isn't really noticeable untill you get up to 100lb plus. You'll need to learn the technique of shooting "in the bow" but once you've mastered that, you'll have all the fun you can handle. I'm a big softee, 60lb is my limit nowadays.. I'm to0 fond of my shoulder joints to shoot big bows.....
... but... go for it... you won't regret it...
