Lol...Don't mention the 'O' word...Maybe we should say, gets harder the wiser you get! Sounds better than the 'O' word.

The English longbow had a draw-weight of between 80-150 pounds...180? I'd need hydraulics.

I got my uncle to draw it back once. We waited and waited and waited 🤣🤣 probably over kill and useless but meh

Hmm, I think I'd want something one could more rapidly fire...I'd need a couple bowls of Wheatbix to draw back 180 ponds I think. Maybe three.

Nah you'd be fine, just got to use two hands. It's not as hard as it looks. But hurts your fingers after a few shots.

I think I'll stick to the guns...A bit easier, if one knows what one is doing. 😀

At least bolts don't go rusty and if they do they don't kill you 🤣 I've had these since I was 11 and 12. Found em when we were moving. I disposed of them as I didn't want them deteriorating and going off in the cupboard.

Different world when I was at school, I remember when I took them in for show and tell. We all had to bring things in about hobbies.

Previous week I brought in a rabbits tail and everyone lost their shit.

Then I brought these in and the teachers lost their shit.

I couldn't understand the rucuos, they asked us to bring in our hobbies.

Lol, disposed of them. Hopefully not by hitting the primers with a hammer. Lol. That could make things lively for a while.
