115# Longbow, it's incredible.
Imagine the world between 75 and 90# and the dedication required to draw from 90 to 100# with daily exercises.
I doubt that there could be more than 100 people on the planet able to draw 115#.

I understand that one could be agnostic. The energy of a heavy arrow from a 100# has to be seen to be believed.
I botched a shot and my arrow, rigged with a field point, went through an iron tube thru and thru. A solid tube (OD 3.5 cm) that holds the parasol. And the arrow wasn't recovered, keeping enough energy to fly across my garden.
When rigged with a BH, no target can stop it. Only firm ground can.
