If some of you enjoy heavy bows? This Yew Warbow was made 75" long 110# at 30# for about two year ago. Yew wood is not good to use in my country since we have very cold and dry air on winter time. Yew wood needs more humid weather. I can use it on summertime, but last winter it take set of 4" even if I´m not touch the bow. I have heat treating the bow now and reflexed it about 3" and get it a bit stronger than when the bow was made. On my scale it pulls 90# at 25" draw and shoots good again. I only need to refinish the bow and dont shoot on winter anymore. Pictures when the Yew warbow was done for two years, as well when I´m done with heat treating, and my fulldraw at 30" will pull about 115#

Brother, that's my kinda Bow! When I had Skibow up that high, I had a hard time finding arrows that would not bend or break when shot. Hey, we have a lot of humidity here in South Carolina, I could keep it here for you

Bro, That my bow You should try Ash or Poplar shafts 3/8" or 1/2" to name some wood, spined around 110# to your skibow. I use that, with weight around 1150 grains. Sure you could keep it in South Carolina over the winter if you pay shipping charge both ways, its only about 100 bucks one way
