New 140lb English yew bow

This is a replica of the Mary Rose bow MR79A0807, one of the largest bows on the ship. Mine was made from quite low density English yew however, so the draw weight isn't anywhere near as heavy as the original probably was. I'd imagine the actual bow was more like 180lb to 200lb.


Cow horn sidenocks, and a beeswax finish.
