Welch Recurved SHORT bow

(Click on photo for larger picture)

Given that there are no surviving artifacts of this weapon, exactly what it looked like is anybody's guess but evidence seems to suggest it was a very short bow. This design is based on a four foot bow made from Elm but in this case is made from linen backed Red Oak, which is very similar. It pulls between 40 and 50 pounds.  Your eyes are not playing tricks on you, this is the same design as the recurve bow, but this one is only 48 inches long instead of 72 inches.  To view the full-size recurve, click HERE.

No matter what your draw length, this bow should only pulled to 20 inches or less, allowing anyone to shoot it. If you cannot pull to the full twenty inches that's okay, just draw as far as you can and release.

This weapon is designed for snap shooting at distances up to 15 yards or so which makes it ideal for hunting in thick brush, reenactment, or just target shooting.

This bow is designed to be pulled no more than twenty inches.

The bow is permanently finished and needs no maintenance. Instructions and a stringer are included with the bow.
