Suche nach traditionellen englisch Longbow Bauern
Verfasst: 17.01.2004, 20:04
Hallo Zusammen!
Caterine Mooyaart-Marteau von „The Fraternity of Saint George 1509“ http://www.longbow-archers.com bat mich folgende Definition eines "regulären" englischen Longbow zu veröffentlichen und nachzufragen ob es Bogenbauer in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz gibt, die ihre Bögen nach diesem "Regularium" herstellen. Ziel soll der Kontakt zu potentiellen Kunden/interssenten etc. sein.
Die Definition ist in Englisch, sorry!
I am aware there are very skilled bow-makers in your country, however, do they also make the "regulation" English longbow, or are they making what we would call American longbows or Flatbows.
Here is the definition of a longbow:
To be classified as a longbow, the bow must as tall as the archer with straight ends. The length of the bow must be not less than 5 ft 6" long for men and 5 ft long for ladies. It must have a stacked belly and either horn nocks or self nocks. Its cross-section must be "D" shaped, with a minimum depth to width ratio of 3/8th throughout the length of the bow. It must be wider at the arrow plate than any other spot on the top limb. It must be wider immediately below the grip than any other spot on the lower limb.
The bow may or may not have a handle. No arrow rests are allowed, nor are sight marks of any kind. The arrow must lay over the top of the forefinger for shooting. No artificial materials of any kind other than glue may be used in the bow. Any glue that is used must be only to stick together the laminations, handgrip, nocks and arrow plate(s) of the bow. Glue may not be used to form a structural element of the bow. The string of the bow may be of artificial materials and may be double looped, single looped of tied. The string may have a nocking point but no other side marks or reference aids of any kind. rrows must be made of wood only, but there are no restrictions on materials used to make their points or nocks.
Only feather fletchings are allowed. There, that's it!
Many thanks!
Ich möchte noch betonen, dass ich weder mit der "Fraternity" verbunden bin, noch mit der Definition eines "regulären" englischen Longbow. Die Bogenbauer die Interesse an einer Kontaktaufnahme haben mögen bitte direkt an Caterine mailen:
fraternity@longbow-archers.com
Vielleicht sorgt das ja dafür, dass die Bogenschützen auf den Inseln und in Frankreich in Zukunft im deutschprachigen Raum ihr Equipment kaufen:)
Beste Grüße!
