Tods Workshop | ARROWS vs ARMOUR 2 - How powerful is a Warbow? @tods_workshop | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 2 hours ago
‘Arrows vs Armour’ is back and we are shooting medieval war arrows at the top half of an armoured knight using armour and arrows that are correct in every detail; but what about the bow?. The main film shows exactly what happened but was the bow too powerful?

There are no existing medieval longbows, not one. So we have to guess from the best of our knowledge and experience what weight bow Joe should shoot and we have deliberately chosen power at 160lbs. But would a weaker bow be powerful enough to injure our knight? We set out to find out, by shooting at a sheet steel target.

We have also put together a website hosting all the films, documents, supplier contacts and biographies for this series of films todtodeschini.com/youtube-projects/arrows-v-armour-2
